I'm HOME!
Home at last, home at last! Thank Barack almighty I am home at last!
I can't stop crying
I’m an emotional wreck! And all I can think about is “We need to get ready for our 2012 campaign! “
This feels fuckin’ AWESOME!!!
The Two Best Volunteers by Far!
This morning I arrived at the precinct headquarters, aka Maryann’s home and awaited her to dish out my duties. I sat across the table from an older couple (mid 70’s to 80’s) who said that they were local Iowans here at the home to make phonecalls. We chatted a bit about the campaign and the nerves of the day and she told me about her family. She had said that she was impressed...

Election Day!
I am so nervous, I think I’m going to throw up!
I didn’t sleep at all last night. I’d take a picture to prove I look like shit with bags under my eyes, but I think your imagination is better.
Nora: I need some help here!
I woke up this morning to find two homeless white tail deer in the backyard. I have temporarily nicknamed them Cedar and Rapids. I want to take one home, would anyone else be able to take care of the other???
I’m thinking about transporting them on the hood of my car. Please help me save these deer! Hunting season starts soon!
Another animal saved by The Barack Obama Campaign!

Funny things I have noticed about Iowa
EVERYONE rakes the leaves and cuts their lawn on Saturday!
Everyone parks their car outside of their garage AND leaves their garage door up whether they are home or not.
Everyone has the midwestern hospitality (excluding Chicago). They feed you until you can’t eat anymore.
The streets all curve in a whimsical pattern! (John coined that phrase) There are no straight roads and everything is...
Mi Reflejo
I was sittinng and reflecting on how amazing it is to have so many people work together for a common goal. Sitting in Maryann’s living room surrounded by the other volunteers, I couldn’t help but feel happy that so many people have traveled so far to do anything that they can to help. This past weekend we had over 450 volunteers from the Evanston area alone. I was told that 5,000...

To this quote, Joe Scarborough said, “Uhhhh okay Tucker.”

2 kittens in a bed
noraleah:
I am in bed, checking up on my canvassing cousin Renee (ruhnay.tumblr.com). But I put the Sidekick down every few minutes to look at the two little kittens asleep at my feet. Wilkes is lying over Trouble, which is so sweet because Trouble’s the small one and a bit more vulnerable. My cup runneth over … but it is bittersweet because their brother or sister is STILL OUT THERE with no one...
