So I made the mistake of crumbling under not yet foreseen pressures and took a job as a canvasser.
I say it was "unforeseen" pressure due the fact that since I'm out of the loony bin and back living with Netty & Jack, it would only be a few more day before Netty was up my ass about getting a job. Trust me living in the nut house for a week is a cake walk compared to living with Netty.
But, back to the job. I canvassed for 2.5 for the Human Rights Campaign because I feel passionately enough about equality for all humans.
The Humans Rights Campaign is the largest Gay & Lesbian civil rights group. You can Click over on the right to see what their all about. It mind boggling to believe in 31 states it is legal to terminate an employee for being gay or lesbian.
My job was to the man on the street to sign up HRC Partners and raise money to pass the bill though congress.
While I have the big mouth for the job, people in Boston are big givers, so i never quite made the quota. OK, the truth I never even got close. Plus they only gave me a couple days to try. Not only that a fellow canvasser was evading my space and taking potential donators away from me.
So I said chalk my time up as volunteer work let me find a better outlet for my skills and energy.
Hey at least I tried!

Yo Ro! Move On!
Rosie O'Donnell has more fightin' words for nemesis Elisabeth Hasselbeck ... and for Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
She wrote on her blog on Saturday:
sarah p - elisabeth h - identical cousinswomen who hunt in high heelsgives one pause.
Left-leaning O'Donnell chose to depart the ABC daytime talk show "The View" earlier than planned last year following an on-air confrontation with the more conservative Hasselbeck.
Time to close the chapter and move on Rosie! If you need pointers. Read my blog!
As a featured guest on "The Martha Stewart Show" in April, O'Donnell referred to her former co-host on "The View" as "a little Republican who scared me."
Last year, Hasselbeck said she tried to keep her cool during her on-air spat with O'Donnell, in which a political discussion over the war in Iraq became heated when an angry O'Donnell decried Hasselbeck for not standing up for her when media outlets suggested that she'd called U.S. troops "terrorists" during a previous debate.

READ THIS BLOG!
Hey Y'all! I pleading with you to read this witty and insightful blog. It details my life, struggles and opinions of the world around me.
But also more importantly, I want to use it as a stepping stone to becoming a writer and humorist in the style of David Sederis.
Come on now! If Tori Spelling can debut at #1 on the New York Times bestsellers list by telling "sTori's" about what a big c*** Shannen Doherty is, I definitely should be able to amount to something with my important stories.
