listening to: john lennon, give peace a chance

i forgot to mention 2 things about last night that i wanted to mention, so here goes:

1. the dean staffers were handing out cowbells, so we could all be even more loud and obnoxious than we already were, and i totally broke mine within half an hour. like... when they were announcing hillary, i was ringing it really, really, really hard... and the clapper flew off someplace and we couldn't find it. awwwsad. so then i just kept whacking the bell on my chair.

2. on the way back home, we were all hungry, so we stopped at perkin's. (well, first we stopped at culver's, but they were closed ~_~) it's about 11, so it's pretty empty. there are only 2 full tables, both with people wearing dean shirts at them. so then we sit down, and about 10 minutes later some of the hawkeyes for dean came in and sat down. then awhile after that, a couple edwards kids come in, and everyone stops and looks at them... and then one of the random dean people was like, "sorry, this restaurant is dean-only!" and... it was v. funny.

but last night was just so awesome. i felt so... inspired and empowered and just like... i don't know. like, i'm so not into sports, but i imagine it felt something like being at the superbowl and being with a bunch of supporters for your team of choice and just screaming and being so enthused and... yeah.

hmm. anyone who can get des moines radio, 93.3 is having a beatles a-y weekend. ("why? because there is no z!") right now they're on the g's.

oh, and priscilla: yeah, iowa rules. caucus power! i'm sure closer to the pennsylvania primaries you'll get more candidates nearby.
