Continuing with the national theme, I’ll be sleepless in the office on IM. Feel free to poke me on IM. Then, tomorrow, it’s off to northern NH to camp! Two days of NH staff training and bonding. I’ll be training people on the database and learning how the minds of non-techies work. Mysterious stuff, I tell ya.
Don’t forget to donate to Dean. Only about 26 hours left til the deadline–we’re going to need a big push at the end to get to $1 million. So….if you believe in balanced budgets, health care, and a sensible foreign policy, help us out!

Hope you have a fabulous time while there. :]
I am amused thinking of the modules/retreats I had to go on last summer – though I’m sure Dean retreats will be a little more tame/politically correct than yale ones, considering he wants to be elected to office and all. ;]

while it’s hard to overestimate the amount of alcohol consumed on the retreat, yeah, I’m guessing Yale’s were a bit wilder.
But in the vast scheme of things the only question of real importance when judging the quality of these excusions is whether you get to play capture the flag ;)
