Reply #4: Another hall pic [View All]

Cuz I was too shocked when Our Intrepid Interns brought Cam Kerry over to the M1 delegation to get my camera and a pic.

VEK: "Hey, Tay, look who's here."
Tay looks up from whatever she is doing, proably navel-gazing, and sees Vek and WEL and Cam Kerry standing 3 seats over from her. Tay is shocked. Thinks to herself, "You brought Cam Kerry over to see me? Ahm, ????????????? Ahm, gee, ahm, wow!" Tay can't think why anyone would want to met her, but is also happy to see Mr. Kerry, younger brother of Our Taller Senator. Ahm, gee, I hope I combed my hair at 630 this morning when I left my house. Geez Vek, could you phone ahead next time? I would like to have something to say besides doofus speech.

I scrambled out of my seat, probably elbowed my husband in the head, stepped on Harold's foot, (hey, he's 80 or more, he won't need that foot much longer, right) and passed right over the Chair of my delegation. I didn't bother to introduce anyone like a nice human being would do and everyone had to fend for themselves while I tried to think of something to say. (Ahm, that part worked out well. Everyone else apparently didn't take stupid pills for breakfast or got a night's sleep.) I did introduce myself. We talked about the Victory '06 Mass effort and I mentioned a conversation I had had minutes before with Cam's Co-Chair on this effort and how I hoped to help by bringing in bloggers and such. (Hey, that almost sounds intelligent. Maybe it wasn't too bad afterall.)

We talked a wee bit about the efforts here to 'help out' with the blogs. Mutual names were exchanged. Then Vek and WEL left to escort Mr. Kerry to another delegation so he could check in and get volunteers for the Victory '06 effort. Then I got a lot of questions from other delegates and funny looks. (ahm, why did they bring Cam Kerry over here to meet you? I can see him just coming over, everybody makes the rounds. But how come they knew about you? Ahm, I sort of answered it and then distracted people cuz I didn't want to answer ten million questions while the all exciting and tingling 'questioning of the credentials of delegates' who had 'pissed people off' was going on. Couldn't miss that one.) Ahm, Vek and WEL will check in shortly and correct my mistakes. I am certain that all the delegations were visited, it's just that it was a bit shocking to look up and have VEK pointing at me and having us talk. (Well, it was.)



Ahm, WEL, tell people that my ego is now out-of-control and that I misperceived this. I should have introduced more people that I was sitting with and been more together for this. I could have helped maybe get more Victory 06 volunteers. Damn.
