Work.

Campaigns are difficult, because you rarely ever agree completely with the person you are campaigning for. At least, not on every single issue.

Nonetheless, even when this is momentarily disheartening, it is very exciting to work for somebody whom you believe in and trust. My cousin Tom is one such person. Even when I have a different concept of an ideal policy, I am completely behind the ethic which drives his desire to be politically engaged. And, more importantly, his philosophy of discovering what our real goals should be in public policy, and gearing his discussion of policy towards accomplishing those goals, is the most important step our nation could take away from partisan politics.

I am incredibly excited to continue working on this campaign. I started work the day after I got here, and have been working an average of 10 or more hours a day. But, I feel much better having a positive and productive place to work, and a room of my own.

But, I miss my home, for she is sweet.
