To Do list:
- Donate money to the ACLU. They’re gonna need it.
- Contact the local Democratic party headquarters and volunteer.
- Get involved more in local organizations and effect change from the inside.
- Raise a family of pinko liberal hippie educated activist Democrats.
- Make, pack, and send some care packages to soldiers serving in Iraq.
Any other suggestions? I’m all ears.
Props. Special shout-outs to the following people, whom I haven’t mentioned but in passing the last few days:
- Renie, my sister, for driving six and a half hours to stand on a ladder and scrape the Oldest Wallpaper Known To Man from the plaster in our hallway. Hopefully, the lobster feast, trip to Peter’s, homemade quiche and booze made it worthwhile.
- Dave, our good friend, who dropped by to haul away a pile of dry brush from our driveway on Tuesday, and who sat through an hour of our deepening depression as the election results came in. He could not be tempted with either pizza or Hefeweizen, so we owe him something special. Chewbacca thanks you, Dave.
- Molly, for the excellent T-shirt she sent over just in time for an anniversary present. Jen looked at it and laughed, and I suggested she wear it at Christmas. We’ll see how that goes.
Updates. I went through the Lockardugan Photo Archive this morning to dig out a bunch of beginning photos of the house for comparison’s sake. I’m going to be posting them over the next day or so as I get the time- there’s a bunch of them. This should be interesting.
