As you may have noticed, I haven't posted anything in a LONG time. So I'm deciding to make it official - I'm going on hiatus until after the election. There's tons to write about, but not enough hours in my day anymore. And I'm taking the GRE next Saturday, which is just totally insane. Wish me luck getting through that and the next 34 days.

So I was supposed to go to Philly and NJ this weekend to see my family, but unfortunately I got sick and couldn't go. Total bummer. I've done a fairly good job resting this weekend, but I can tell I'm still not 100 ( Read more... )

Well, it hasn't quite been a month yet, but almost. Jeez, I really need to write more. I could blame it on being busy, which I have been, but the real problem is my incredibly slow dial-up internet connection at home, which pretty much makes me never want to go online at home, and I haven't had a chance to download whatever I need to be able to ( Read more... )

Okay, I hadn't intended this as something I just update once a month, but it's sadly become that recently. Though luckily all the crazy traveling has calmed down so I'm actually home more on the weekends. Last weekend was about the first in six or seven that I spent in NH. Even this weekend I went to Portland yesterday to see Lisa and fireworks ( Read more... )

So it's three weeks later, and the EC bill just got to the Governor's office this afternoon. There was much giddiness for a few hours last week when we heard a rumor that since the Governor was out of the state that the Senate President, who is acting Governor when the Governor is away or incapacitated, was going to sign the bill. But it turned ( Read more... )

I saw my first moose this week (bizarrely enough, on the side of the highway in Manchester, which is not at all where I thought my first moose sighting would be since it's the most "urban" area of the state) - one more NH experience I can check off the list.

The Governor is going to veto the EC bill, probably some time this week, though the ( Read more... )

Way too much to catch up on, which is what happens when you don't write for over a month ( Read more... )

I wish I had a good excuse for not writing lately, but it's mostly just laziness. I have been busy, especially with work - the March for Women's Lives quickly approaches, and we have sold out all of our NH buses (as well as our buses in Maine and Vermont) so that's exciting. And my mother is coming down to DC to join me for the March so I am ( Read more... )

It's spring in NH, and I'm so happy. Of course, I'm trying to not get myself too excited because it's only the end of March, and it can certainly snow into April and occasionally May(!) here. And evidently, that's what the Farmer's Almanac (published in NH) is predicting. But for now, I'm just thrilled that I actually was able to pull out open- ( Read more... )

The state Senate passed the EC bill 14-9 on Thursday afternoon. So in the space of 2 days, we defeated 5 anti-choice bills and passed our one pro-active one. Now for the rest of the session, all we have to work on is getting the EC bill through the House, which I think we can do. And then wonder if the Governor will sign it or veto it, though it ( Read more... )
