With endless car loads of high energy youths, the chaperones shuttled back and forth between head quarters and the homes of unsuspecting Independents and Undecideds. Armed with maps, clip boards and fists full of literature, teams broke down the demographics of neighborhoods and swarmed streets like so many ants on a piece of sticky candy on the play ground. Youthful vim and vigor made every outing into a neighborhood seem like...well, like child's play.
Boys will be boys....so they say. Having been designated driver (a.k.a. the old person) for a car full of teenage boys all morning makes me even more convinced that the only reason they eventually give up using sound effects is simply to attract a mate and thus procreate the population. Hormones aside, given the choice in the matter, they would always choose door number 2...sound effects. Oh, yes, and that favorite phrase, "Dude, look at that car!"
Later after lunch I put in my requisition for some garden variety girls. I needed some balance in my life!
Speaking of girls....Sarah Palin spoke with us this afternoon! She was very encouraging and thankful for our teens and their hard work. She made it very clear that she understood who exactly was responsible for the Victory of this election...her fashion designers! (Oh, I couldn't help myself!) But seriously, she has some amazing shoes! Sorry, Jenna, she didn't let Piper take the call. I'll keep asking to speak with her and let her know how thrilled you are to have a 7 year old in the White House!
Did I mention how well they are feeding us? The hospitality of the Harris County Republicans has been fabulous! Made a run for Pepto, but hey I just chalked that up to travel nerves! I'm going to make a request for more veggies, though.
I have tons of pictures...you should see them, they're great! If I had any computer sense at all I could successfully figure out why I'm having such difficulty getting my driver to regognize the CD in the drive and upload the pictures I KNOW are on it! But, you'll just have to take my word for it and check back next week when I post a slide show of our time here!
Goodnight!
