Walking through Wegmans

One of the things I love about Loudoun County is that you can't go shopping at Wegmans without seeing at least one person you know.

This last time, it was two members of teh Spouse's campaign for delegate, who now work for Jeff Barnett; and a recently retired member of the CSB.

Everytime we go, we see colleagues and neighbors and folks we know from our son's school or daycare. Most of the people we see, we'd know even if we weren't quite so involved in community affairs, but it's one of those things that makes me feel that this is a community worth being involved in.

Because you just can't go to Wegmans without seeing people you know.

The article's out!

I'm happy so many local bloggers got interviewed for it! And doubly happy that I found a new blog through it: Life in Loudoun County. The more voices blogging about local issues, the better, in my opinion.

For those who would like to link through to the sites mentioned in the article:

Interviews, Interviews

I've been interviewed twice recently for two different things. One is a book about campaigning, the other is an article about blogging.

I'm not gonna lie to you, Marge*, I love talking about the stuff I love to do.

I love campaigning. I love blogging. I love blogging about campaigning. I would love to campaign about blogging, if that were even possible.

I hope that you, too, are getting to talk about the things you love to do.

Back from a week in NYC

Where I only looked at the NYT for the crossword puzzle and was otherwise out of touch with news and information. I checked Twitter a couple of times, but mostly spent time with family and friends.

And spent a day at Sesame Place.

Did I miss anything?

Work. Vacation. Work

I've been offline more than on the last couple of weeks. New posts coming soon!
