While it doesn't surprise me to learn she might take time from her busy campaign schedule to help out in a public service kind of way, the fact that she was awake at 7:30 in the morning did.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12768142849449016414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10901468.post-20833642002891864792008-10-21T22:23:00.000-04:002008-10-21T22:23:00.000-04:00I'm laughing, but wondering at the same time if I ...I'm laughing, but wondering at the same time if I should send the nice men in the white coats with the huggy jacket your way. *snerk* <BR/><BR/>Totally hysterical.

I was going to e-mail you about meeting me at Union Station but find you were gone that weekend anyhow. I like to think myself your #1 fan in Wyoming but, seeing the picture from Dancing Sheep in downtown Casper (My Hometown) I now have to rethink it... NAW, I am still your #1 fan. (I'm just jealous I couldn't be in the photo too.) The Alaska Governor's Mansion bit made me nearly fall out of my chair with laughter. I wonder if it will set a trend? Anyhow, can't wait to buy my copy of the little book. Take care.
