stormkeeper_lovedoris- I've made $315 in canvassing (and should have another $125 coming to me). I don't do it for the money but it is nice to have gas (and partial hotel) paid for.
- Last week at work I was asked to go to this lunch thing for this foundation the company donates to. It was nice to get out and socialize and be reminded that hey, I can still 'work a room' of strangers. Also the vegan option was surprisingly great
- This is funny. In one of my trips to Wisconsin, a vending machine ate my money. The place told me I can fill out a card and they'd get it to the vendor. Less than a week later, I get a letter from something like "Wisconsin Candy Company". They mailed me $4 cash. LOL I never thought I'd see that money again
- My boss said some very nice things about me. Oh and hey.....a member of our larger team had posted that they need someone to take on some secondary duties for 4 months in the area of Public Policy. Months ago my boss and I had talked about me taking a Public Policy class. Well - we agreed this assignment would be 100 x better than a class. And - I got it! The PP team is going to have a planning meeting Tuesday and then figure out how to bring me in
- Still getting about 6-8 comments per chapter on my longfic. One of them has been trying to figure out how I'm gonna get Alec and Magnus back together, and I love it!
- Two things happened Friday that "could've been a lot worse". I got rear-ended and on Halloween our house was near several houses that got egged. (We just got a few cartons and eggs dropped on our lawn)
- And funny fangirl moments today. I texted Justin (Alaska) for the first time in like 6 years or so. He texted back right away. (It's about the election and getting his sister to vote). And Sachin sent me a Cameo. He says he is "working on something. Just an episode of a show"
- Btw I know I usually don't post things like....'I am lucky my parents were good and I wasn't in foster care' and 'Doris said today she has no regrets in marrying me' and 'I got a really cool BFF'. I know it's all that we tend to take stuff for granted. I am never sure how much to include these things on my grat lists
no subject
Date: 2024-11-04 04:46 pm (UTC)Alaska's mom confirmed that her daughter (plus both her other sons and their wives) all voted in PA and voted blue! Two of them are surrounded by Trumpers.
Same, about actors. I really really long for him to land a role on an ongoing show, but even just a "one episode thing" is good.
