I have recently developed 2 new fetishes. Gilmore Girls and Iced Coffee. They have managed to completely change my life since Friday. I don't know if I like it. I talk excessively about everything and nothing and spend a lot of money.

My job is getting progressively more busy, which has been nice. Today I've been *place here a nice name for commanded* to attend a press conference with the esteemed (hated) Governor Blagojevich. He's talking about health care, so we need to be present. It would be like attending a Bush press conference. Well known, but not liked. So you almost feel privileged, but then remember who it is you're listening to. If I was Shane Claiborne I would paint my chest and shout revolutionary things at him. Instead I'll sit in the back and take notes with the other business casual youngins.

Oh life.
