OBAMA

I'm just back from Obama's 9:45 pm rally at Beloit College's fieldhouse, where Michael Jordan used to practice. It was fun to have him here as his last appearance before our vote. First they said our whole line would get in, then they said I was the very last, then they said they miscounted + the guy before me was the absolute last, but they changed their mind cuz I was told I'd made it. I felt guilty, so I was delighted when they later relented + let another 50 in, but it had been a good story + I didn't have to wait long + was plenty close. But I couldn't have got mom there cuz Nic just dropped me on our way back from dancing; you know it's mom's type of event.
Chelsea Clinton also spoke in a lesser rally there earlier.
He's very articulate + has an excellent voice, which was nice even if you don't like him, plus he has my ears + haircut. It makes it more interesting to see tomorrow's vote.
There is a serial rapist-killer in Reno who's had his third attack, once each month, all co-eds. Just after I watched Dexter, the story of the cop/serial killer. I hope my tastes don't inspire killers cuz I do enjoy the genre.
You know the city will be lauding itself for putting everything together last minute, but it is interesting. It was still frigid + snowing, but at least it was something besides the miserable weather to talk about. The massive rain days have been the worst of all; snow at least impresses people.
