I'm so excited I can't hardly stop bouncing. Oh my gawd Will, I just got elected to represent my whole distriat on a state committee! Oh my god! *big hug* -B-

38. Thank you everyone

I appreciate all the kind words. I had a fabulous time on the credentials committee. There was a credentials fight (that I had been warned was gonna happen - it was why I ran) and it felt really good to make sure the good guys won. :) I met some fabulous people on the committee. Lots of new people who got up in the face of the long time party guy who was appointed to be the chair. We wouldn't let him railroad through the process. Our whole convention was like that. Lots and lots of new people shaking up the status quo. :)

P.S. Will, thanks. You're a doll-baby. *big smooch*

[GOPisEvil]

39. You mean there was actually business conducted at the convention?

I only heard stories of bar-hopping, restaurants and hotels. :shrug:

Congratulations and sorry you didn't get selected for National.

I'm also glad you are alive. You were not the peppiest person in the world last night.
