Super Tuesday

When I was young and “brilliant”, I decided I was going to change the world and headed off to a PolySci major in DC.  Quickly disillusioned by the inefficiency of actually working in politics, my political obsession now translates into a stubborn refusal to schedule eye doctor or hair appointments on Super Tuesday and sending my husband an evite to a party for two on our living room couch to watch results roll in.  So how does a Mom of the Year settle up the fact that her mark on this earth might not be something that shakes the nation?  She starts a blog and relentless begs people to follow and hit it with an alarming intensity for one…  The thing is, we’ve all got a corner.  No, I may never author a phenomenal piece of game-changing legislation, but God did give me the job of just trying to rock out my small, particular slice of life.  Somedays that may be scrubbing spit-up out of my carpet to the point that I consider just ripping up the entire carpeting myself before my husband gets home b/c there’s no way I’m going to get the stench out–like, ever…Somedays you may get to do something really cool like hold the door open at a store for a pregnant lady fighting a double stroller, or wave to your neighbor as you make the 10th trip out of the day to stalk your mailbox.  And I guess somedays, you just “are”, which can also be cool too.  So for those of you who are amazing movers and shakers on this earth, go you.  I’m proud to say I know you 🙂  For the rest of you, the couch convention officially kicks off at 7:30pm on March 6th if you want to get in on the election drama.
