A couple thoughts today:

1. It’s really hard to convince people to vote when you’re not feeling it as much as you want to. For instance, I have spent all day attempting to encourage some of the people I work (clients, not peers) with to vote. I love people advocating for themselves. I even held an inpromptu discussion over the Presidential candidates talking points -- just to get a discussion going. I turned out to be lackluster and boring. Maybe I can do better as we get closer to ending this election season.

2. Working from Noon to 8pm is pretty cool. I get lots of over-time, too. It tends to be stressful, as I have approximately eleventy supervisors. Oh, and I left my Nalgene at work. I’m sad. And dehydrated. I need to buy a new one anyway.

3. I found a horrible and shocking video on YouTube the other day. Not only do I disagree with the message, I’m not sure the children in this scary propaganda-esque hate video really even understand what they’re really saying. Read the comments on the YouTube page.

4. I believe, and like, the Filter For Good concept. In fact, I haven’t purchased a bottle of water (unless I’m without my Nalgene) since I took the pledge. I’ve also increased my water consumption and eliminated soda from my diet.

5. I like goats. Especially the Fainting kind. My family raises them, and has about 70. They’re like pets… awesome.
