Levar Burton Reads, he reads contemporary short stories not children’s stories, this is not Reading Rainbow). Season 1 just wrapped, I can’t wait for more new episodes.

Politics / Activism thread.

Hugs. Hope everything works out.

Volunteering or joining a club or civic group. I’m going to trivia night with people I met through Democratic Town Committee meetings

I do not consider myself a make up person but I went to the bareMinerals counter and I’m very happy with what I got and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg!

I have a pile of books to read and no time to read! I love Levar Burton’s new podcast, he reads contemporary short stories in a variety of genres.

wishing you the best of health.

YAY! for creativity!

so sorry you are going through this. If there are any other encounters, try recording them on your phone - if you are on a public street, there is no expectation of privacy, so you don’t have to get their permission to record

keep your options open, it sounds like he just wants his way, not that he’s changed his mind for you.

good luck in nursing school. Money might be tight, but you are doing something that you’ve wanted to, and the 2.5 years will be over before you know it!

I hoping for a quick recovery. {{{hugs}}}

Good luck with the job search

I like the look! And you may want to join Angie’s List (you can join for free now) to search for contractors & read reviews. Good luck!

We’ll always have this clip of Mario Cantone on the President Show: http://www.cc.com/video-clips/tk7ae7/the-president-show-welcome-to-the-new-reality

thanks for the advice! I have a list of addresses & a map from the party committee, I’ve already talked to another candidate & we will try to walk together (we just have to wait for the party brochure for all candidates to be printed). I’m reading Get Out the Vote, and it mentions the research on door-knocking, too.

thank you. I’m running for a “down ticket” office, but I’m sure people still have their opinions about it and want to be heard

thanks! I’ve looked into Toastmasters, I just have to find a meeting that fits my schedule

thanks so much! Door-knocking will start after Labor Day, I’m just getting a head start on my anxiety about it! ;)
