In case you’re wondering where I have been for the past 48 hours, I’ve been busy.

Silver Democrats of Fort Bend has a headquarters and an Obama Shop up and running in the city of Rosenberg.

We did it all in Texas heat with no air conditioning so it could be ready for today’s meeting at the new headquarters.  We got the air conditioner working at about 11:00 so that meant we quit growling at each other about noon.

A few of us stayed around afterwards basking in the fact that we have a headquarters with wifi and a kitchen.  What else do you need?

Silver Democrats are all over the age of 55 and we are one damn fine looking group of people.  We had about 40 people at our meeting this morning and then a hunk of us all went to lunch together.

We start getting serious about this stuff in the middle of August so we wanted a place to call home before the cavalry shows up to kick hiney and take names.

Political prognosticators say that my county will be the first suburban county in Texas to flip.  Once it does – Barack Obama got 49% of the vote here in 2008 – Texas begins flipping.  Once Texas flips, game over.

I’m good tired, have about a gazillion emails to read, and need to get some laundry done before my whole house smells like the boys’ locker room.

That’s where I’m been.  Like I said, it’s a good tired.
