Pictures included because I don't like to read posts without pictures to look at. 1. Visited floormate at her home in NYC and got really excited over the fact that she has a doorman and all those fancy New York amenities. 2. Rode the subway ALL BY MYSELF to get there and was completely horrified by the uncleanliness factor. I think I've become a public transportation snob. 3. Saw a show on Broadway (The Drowsy Chaperone) and waited outside the stage door for autographs. (Bob Saget)        5. Got mad at BadBank once again (see post below) because using that card with a certain sports team glorified all over it really pissed off one cashier. It's just a game people! 6. Did not, unfortunately, overhear anything worthy of being sent to overheardinnewyork.com 7. Had a big family shindig (not in the city). It was nice because this may be the last one certain grandparents will be attending. 8. Visited various relatives and friends with incurable illnesses and/or cancer. It seems like there are so many people with cancer this year. This was definitely the "sick holiday." We've done a lot of reflecting and spending time together. 9. Went to New Hampshire to intern for a political campaign and held signs outside in below zero weather. Hey, we're freezing for our future. I also got yelled at A LOT on the phone by pissed off voters who just want the primary to be OVER AND WE KNOW WHO WE'RE VOTING FOR SO STOP BOTHERING US, OKAY?!?!.     10. Met the Candidate several times and Candidate's spouse once and was in a photo for a CNN article. (Although it wasn't a favorable article for the Candidate). 11. Met some really friendly volunteers working on different campaigns (as well as some totally crazy ones). 12. Came home briefly and in time for my mom to host a dinner party where the guests hadn't seen me since i was "just this tiny little girl hanging on to your mom and now you're all grown up and working in politics" etc. etc. 13. Made a donation to Locks of Love.   Happy 2008, everyone! |

I would like to donate to Locks of Love! I just cut of a lot of hair..so maybe next time.
That's awesome that you donated your hair :-)
Love the NYC pics!
Hope you liked my hometown!
Very interesting. Mind you,I can't say I blame people for being fed up with the election already.
I love your blog name. I too, I'm afraid, am a slacking overachiever!! Liked the pics too -- worth a thousand words, especially when it's New York!
Happy TT!
great 13.
There was only one picture that loaded for me, but it sounds like you had a busy and fun break!
I've only been to NYC once. The dirty subways were still awesome for an 11th grader raised in the country LOL That was so long ago!
Happy Thursday!
Dang! I can't see the pictures. Darn computer of mine but it sounds like you had a productive break!
