SAD! This week I have watched bill after bill either get stuck in suspense files, or die altogether. These are bills that would have provided emergency services to populations with LEP (limited English proficiency), paid for comprehensive sex ed programs in schools on both the federal and state levels, and given interpreters to domestic violence victims at the state's expense. I'm just - in a post-bill tracking stupor.
I'm also at Starbucks working today - it's like a day off, but not, because I have to get drafts of THREE factsheets out by FRIDAY.
That said, since I'm here in Little Tokyo, distractions are abound. One distraction is this blog. But Scott says, at least two per week, so okay Scott Chan, you might get three this week.
Or maybe not, we'll see. Maybe I'll just get a racist license plate instead.
Day 1 of Week 3 was satisfying, though, Lisa and I had a little Wii time (shhh!) during our lunch break, and I watched the cat fall off of stuff twice during the day. (that's right like, oops, there she goes off the table, and oops, I think she's hanging onto that shelf for dear life!) Set up a meeting with Michelle from OCAPICA (who happens to be Lisa's cousin) for a legislative training planning meeting (too many -ings -- and too many parentheticals!) and made some considerable progress getting to know these bills.
Read all the interns' blogs today, and have to say, I love them. Both the people and the blogs. Yay Christable and NAKASEC for doing SB 1301, aka DREAM. This will be intense.
OKAY back to work. Like.
Foreal.

Three sounds good to me. Can you put up pictures of the cat hanging for dear life??
