Election Day 2020
It’s all come down to this day. I wrote and sent hundreds of postcards for downballot Democrats across the country. I donated money to political campaigns that I believed in. I texted with Victory 2020. The last wave of initial…
Postcards to Voters
As part of my evolution into baby activist, I have been writing with Postcards to Voters for over two years now. (I signed up in October 2018, which is another reason I’m happy I keep a blog.) And while we…

Currently, exhausted homeowner edition
Reading Al Franken, Giant of the Senate. I’m enjoying his outsider’s perspective on running for a Senate seat and his experiences working in DC. I was inspired to switch my party affiliation to the Democrats, but then Donna Brazile had…
When I am an old woman I shall wear pink.
As of today, my presidential voting record is: Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Kerry (ugh), McCain, Obama, Clinton. And on the NJ side, I voted for Jon Corzine and then Chris Christie. Twice. Yep. So trust and believe that I am truly…
Facepalming
I didn’t vote for Donald Trump. It wasn’t just a party thing — I usually hop all over the place with voting* or a woman thing, although that would have been fantastic to see. I voted for the more experienced…
Stupid Beading Tricks: Earrings for Coworkers and Election Day woes.
Happy Election Day! We voted a little after 7am and then got coffee and a donut at Dunkin’ Donuts to celebrate. There was no line and we received no stickers. I have never received a sticker for voting. Eh, no…
