Dr. Strangelove

Day two at the office had air conditioning!  I opted to ride the Metro in to work today, and it took about 20 minutes to make it from the RAF to the office.  My time in the office today was centered around gathering contact information for candidates to the House of Representatives.  Katie, a fellow intern, and myself worked through candidates in California and Illinois for the most part today.  Gathering this information is the basic foundation necessary for the growth of the company.  The Vice-President of the company, Savina, has asked me to participate in a campaign and elections event that should be pretty interesting; http://www.cvent.com/events/the-art-of-political-campaigning/event-summary-49c3074cf0404d56b1f6cec239de6c9f.aspx.  I'll be the only intern that goes to the event.  Some co-workers suggested we go to Whole Foods for lunch.  I thought that a strange proposition, but I joined in on the trek.  Not doing that again.  There is a buffet of food that you select from to place into your own bowl, and pay by weight.  This is not economical for me.  I left the office with Katie and Raquel at 6, and we rode the Metro back home.  I had a meeting at 6:30 at the RAF for my Veterans Civic Engagement program, and we had a guest speaker from the Student Veterans of America organization by the name of Matthew Feger.  He talked about his organization, and I am interested in bringing interest about it back to UW-Whitewater after the summer.  The meeting lasted until about 8:30, making my day about 11 and a half hours long.  I wasn't quite ready to call it quits just yet though, because Dr. Strangelove was playing in the outside theater a block from the RAF.  I was joined by Kristin and Pete, and the film started at about 9:00.  I'm back in my room now.  Jon is ironing his shirt, Keenan is on his computer, Pete is lounging in the leather chair, and we are all watching game two of the Heat vs. Celtics series.  Time to watch the last couple of minutes!  Goodnight!!
