The Cult of Lincoln

Friday, September 24, 2004



Grfsgl. I have been on my feet for the past 6 solid hours, 2 of which were spent talking to a woman who was clearly crazy, as to stop her from bothering those in the line around her, and the rest I spent shouting, whether cheering for Kerry and the other speakers, trying to register people to vote, or trying to drown out the eternally clever chants of "Flip Flop! Flip Flop! Kerry is a waffler!," all of which under the scalding sunlight, with no hope of a breeze. And I had made the mistake of wearing heavy jeans and a dark t-shirt. And then after the rally was over, when I hadn't eaten or drank water in 6 hours and already felt mentally deficient and close to heatstroke, to be repeatedly accosted by Republicans who want to debate me. I don't even have the energy to sit in my chair and type. The things I do for my country. *collapses face first on bed*

Well done and thank you.
I love you,
Dad
 
So sorry that you had such a frustrating experience. When you feel rested, let us know how Kerry was received! Was there a huge turn out, and hopefully, mostly for Kerry? Did it seem hopeful, or was it hard to tell where you were, taking care of crazies.
