  Wow I had the honor of seeing Barack Obama speak on Saturday.I volunteered at the event and was assigned to get people to fill out these forms so the campaign could do a head count of how many people attended.Also had to inform people that they couldn't bring beverages or dogs into the invent.I wish they gave us megaphones or voice recorders because I had to repeat myself over and over.I think there was about 10,000 people(thats how many times I had to repeat those instructions).I hung out with another volunteer her name was Susan and she's one of those travelling volunteers from Conneticut.I wouldn't mind doing it I am unemployed right now.The main crowd was baking in the sun it was only in the 80s but with no shade you got roasted.So I convinced Susan to watch the speech in this grassy area outside the main area.At least there was shade and you could move around.All those people close together in that heat I know it was gamey.I had to give this girl my water because she came out of the crowd dehydrated.Senator Obama and myself are on the same page we see through the "Bush politics"They just want to make money for themselves and don't care about the American people.It was just a magical sppeech that hits you.Seeing the racial rainbow of love is what America is and should be.I left (like I leave EVERY Obama event feeling great to  be alive.Despite my unemployment,high gas prices,high food prices and other Bush caused problems I felt like I was in heaven with the atmosphere of this event.VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA!!!

  I have picked up a bad habit over the past year of clockwatching.I must look at the time at least 50 times a day.It doesn't matter if I was working or not.I understand my clockwatching at work but on the weekend or a day off it shouldn't matter too much.Its probably psychological because I can be very impatient.So as a joke on myself I am going to write down every time when I look at  my watch/clock at see if I can it everytime ya know 2:14 pm or 5:47pm or 1:23am I wonder how long it will tak me to see every possible time.
