Update from the Battleground!

Hey guys,

By this time you all know I made the decision to do one more campaign before the season ended. You guys know which one, but this time around it is different. Below I will list reasons why I may not respond to our correspondences until November 8th:

Average Week:
Monday-Thursday 9AM-11PM
Friday 9AM-9PM
Saturday 9AM-9PM (if lucky)
Sunday 12PM-10:00PM

This is an 'average' week. So from the looks of it I only work an 80 hour week, but actually for the last two weeks I have been working 100 hours a week. That is 100 hours of nothing but politics.

Average Beverages:
Protein Water (Okay, so it is Special K protein sugar things in a canvassing water bottle)
Coffee (I get it a large latte every morning from an awesome local place) (also i have filled their punch card twice in the past week)
Beer (Blue moon, bud light lime and fat tire, maybe pbr or natty ice if I get desperate)
Soda
Water (I seriously need to drink more water)

Now it looks like taking the caffeine out of Four Loko may have hurt my beverage choices. Answer: Yes, yes it did, but keep in mind I dont drink beer till 8PM at night and only after a LONG day so about 4 days a week.

Average meal:
Nothing.
Bags of pretzels (we got a giant box donation of pretzels recently)
Scones (with coffee of course)
Bagels (there is a really awesome bagel place around the corner that is only open till 2PM)
One time I had thai food
Nothing.

I have gone two days without eating so I have to put an alarm in my phone to tell me to eat. This happens to me every campaign so I went to hyvee at 10PM last night and bought food for my office. I had a PB&J tonight for dinner with a side of mac and cheese. Need more veggies in my diet.

Websites I visit while bored:
politico
gottavote
cnn (specifically their awesome electoral map that all of you should check out and play with)
the hill
public policy polling
rasmussen
campaignsick.tumblr.com (pretty much my whole life on a tumblr)

Outside world things I just learned tonight that do not involve politics:
Pussy riot and russia
that there is a anti-masturbation asl jehovahs witness video that is set to ignition by rkelley
mean girls is on netflix (everyone on my campaign constantly quotes this movie)
not doing your laundry for a month is a terrible college habit i have kept so I am doing two loads tonight
that when i become more tired i cannot capitalize properly
theres a painting in my room
i ran out of conditioner awhile ago and have been using two different types of shampoo when i thought one was a conditioner
that i have missed a lot of pow and i am going to catch up asap

Amount of times I have dropped my work phone onto the ground and thought that the screen had broken and I would be fired since beginning this sentence: Twice

Hours I text Tyrion throughout the day: Inumerable

How much I miss you guys: Indefinable

So this is my life. I will be sending you guys my address and work phone so that we can communicate on fb. I'm sorry if I don't respond immediately to texts or calls, but I work so much that I am a tired mess. I am always on my work phone and always texting my vols (volunteers).

Love you much,
cylon
