Who of thought that I'd be in the good ol' U.S. of A right now? When I left for Thailand I had a million ideas of what to do with my life following my travels, but none of them included returning to Minnesota.. but the health and well being of my family is very important to me so my decision to come back makes sense. I can even say I'm happy to be here right now. A fews days after I returned I got involved with Working America, a non-profit AFL-CIO affiliated organization. I've canvassed now for over 2 weeks including the last 7 days in a row, with today and tomorrow still ahead. I've been living and dreaming politics. I have been keeping up to date on as much as possible. I've met interesting people from all kinds of backgrounds. I've knocked on nearly 1,000 doors and had hundreds of conversations with people about issues that directly effect them. I've never felt this passionate and involved in something and I love it.
So now, with less than 48 hours to go.. I'm anxious and excited and I hope all my hard work as paid off.
I'm hoping to do some celebrating tomorrow night.
