It's amazing.  I fell down, crying/laughing uncontrollably.  I encourage you to partake.

PAST BLAST....HMMM TASTY

This week has been wacky.  Absol-freakin'n-lutely wacky. 

1.  Our Press Secretary quit.  In a normal business situation, this would be good news.  It would be clearing the path for a natural promotion from my current position as Asst. Press Secretary to Press Secretary.  However, we're talkin' about the government people.  Therefore, until elections are over, I have been asked to take on half of his job duties.  No change in title.  No raise.  All because they don't want to hire anyone else before the election to replace me.  Blah

2.  On Friday I got a call from an ole Communications Professor - a Dr. Brian Richardson!  He was in DC for a conference and needed a tour guide - this was his 1st visit to DC.  So, on Saturday, we met for lunch and I showed him around the National Mall before his flight that evening.  I felt so grown up!  WEIRD

3.  I realized my parent's 15th wedding anniversary is this Thursday!  Fifteen years...WOW!

On a final note...Jesse and I are coming back to D-town for homecoming, and there have been rumblings about the State Fair...if the offer still stands...COUNT ME IN!  I hear they have fried Coca-Cola this year?!! 

Roch out with your Koch out!

FAVORITE QUOTE OF THE DAY: "Cheney emerged from his bunker and predicted 2 more years of GOP rule, which proves he does cast a shadow after all. "

MORTIFICATION

Yesterday I made my first lewd comment in DC.  It was totally innocent though!  I told a U.S. Congressman that he had a meeting with Mr. Koch.  Of course I pronounced the name like you would a male rooster.  The reaction was priceless...

First, there was silence.  Then the Congressman said "What?!".  Then he said, "I believe it's pronounced "Kohsh."   

FABULOUS

The best part of this story is that I was on Speakerphone.

I never thought I would say this, but the National Beer Wholesalers is the DEVIL.  I have been working with them to plan a reception in the Capitol for Oktoberfest for the past 5 months.  Over this time, they have changed rooms twice, changed days 4 times, and now they want an additional room.  This might not be a big deal to the average venue, but in dealing with government rooms everything is wrapped in oversized red tape.  My biggest pet pieve is that the Event Coordinator at NWBA keeps trying to butter me up for all my "hard work".  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
