My life is actually more interesting than this -- but only slightly.

This morning I read transcripts (from the DNC website) of Hillary Clinton's speech last night, Brian Schweitzer's speech from last night, and Republican Jim Leach's speech from Monday.  Yeah, this is kind of my preferred way of doing it, 'cause I'm just not as good at focusing when I'm watching a speech than when I'm reading a text -- though yes I know that means I lose all the dynamics of a public speech (though I'd already seen lots of clips of Clinton's speech on CNN at the gym, so I could kind of extrapolate for that one).  I did watch the "move to vote my acclamation" clip tonight -- hi, Smith house meetings :)

mjules, I learned from ESPN this morning that Obama is a White Sox fan -- which shouldn't surprise me . . . Chicago South Side and all that, but it still made me think of you.

Haha! And yes, I knew this already. If I weren't already going to vote for the man... ;) I love that it made you think of me, though.

Someone mentioned it in the context of symbolic baseball... McCain is an Arizona Diamondbacks fan, and the D-backs and the ChiSox have both been pulling number one in their divisions this season, so it's a very real possibility that they'll face off in the World Series, which would happen in October, right before we go to the polls for elections.

I kinda hope it does, actually, just so we can have fun comparing the outcome of the two.

(WHITE SOX WIN, duh! Although Carlos Quentin, my favorite White Soxer, was acquired in a winter trade from the Arizona Diamondbacks. Ooo. Let's play with the symbolism there, pundits. *laugh*)

Oh man, that just begs to be a dKos diary. (I may in fact actually do it tomorrow if a look through the tags suggests no one's done it already.)
