M.I.A.

So last Thursday I went to the campaign kick-off party of a friend of mine that is running for Dallas County Clerk. It was a nice event at Zubar-- I hadn't been in a while and forgot how much I like that bar. So basically it's a gathering of people that know Greg, we loiter and then Greg makes his stump speech.
The part that really got me thinking was the speech before the speech. It was his mom. It was really neat- she made a simple quick introduction and basically spoke to what a good person he is.
I wondered who would make my introduction? Who knows me well enough to speak to what makes me the person to vote for?
I leaned forward- to who I usually lean to- and said, 'prepare yourself, you'll have to do this for me.' She said, 'ok, fine. but I'm totally telling the story about the time you got shocked by the electric fence.'

So maybe Emilie wasn't the best choice. . . we'll see.
