Tonight I’m walking into a room full of $3,500 tickets. I’m bringing the Danger Corps with me.

Happy Friday, Danger Corps!

How are you? I am so excited for the future, and that is something I don’t know if I’ve felt in a long, long time. I miss me. The me that had hope. It’s nice to see that me is still around. Do you know what I mean? I feel hopeful.

A little while ago I got a message from Nick saying that we (Tiffany, Nick, and I) had been invited to a private Portland Trail Blazers watch party with Senator Ron Wyden tonight. Basically, it’s a fundraising event where you rub elbows with other politically minded people, watch a Blazers game on TV, and sip overpriced cocktails. It actually costs a lot of money to attend, from $500 to $3,500 a ticket, but they invited us to come for free.

Tiffany and I don’t generally attend those types of things. It’s just not our scene. But we’ve decided to go, and Nick is going too. He’s bringing his kids as well. After all that hard work, I guess we can allow ourselves a moment to celebrate.
