Conventioneering

Take two - stupid computer conked out on me, and it sucks blogging while standing:

• It didn't take long to have to deal with the blatherings on of the person who only read the report until they found something to complain about, ignoring that their issue was dealt with on page 10. Ah, to be angry and uninformed.
• I was seated on the international relations committee, which had five resolutions opposing the war in Iraq. The committee opted for the one "opposing the war and calling for a rapid and timely withdrawal," rather than the res which was for "opposing the war and calling for an immediate withdrawal.
• I had lunch with the GEO folks at the LGBTQ caucus. Fun.
• Lots of speechifying yesterday, including McElroy's call to "Count Me In" - snappy convention slogan, n'est-ce pas?
• Good seafood and lots of PBR with Swanson last night.
• Ran into to Liz M. this morning, who apparently had a night similar to mine, and was having similar physiological reactions to said evening.
• Four hours forty minutes until the senior senator from Massauchusetts.
