I feel like there was an election recently. Yes? No? I don’t remember; it’s all a daze.
I spent the last few months working for the Charlie Crist for Governor campaign and, as I’m sure you are aware, we were unsuccessful in out endeavor to convince the people of Florida that Governor Rick Scott does not have the interests of the general public in mind. Money speaks volumes and when you don’t have it, or don’t have as much as your opponent, you can’t speak.
I’m not bitter. Honestly. We busted our butts for a cause we believed and continue to believe in. Unfortunately, the people of Florida disagreed with us. And that’s okay.
It was a learning experience, to be sure. But, now that I’ve gotten some much needed rest and I finally feel like I’m getting out of the sleep deprived haze, I’m back to writing.
Things are looking positive and I’m looking forward to running full steam ahead to finish this year strong and start the next year with some momentum!

My recent fav 3 interviews were Fran Lebowitz from your 12 hour anniversary show, Suki Hawley and the Battle for Brooklyn. I’d also *love* a montage of Janeane’s Katherine Harris interviews, or just the 1st interview from your anniversary show. I guess you knew that not just myself, but others have many more than 3 favs, but given only 3, those paticular ones popped up at the top of my head.
