My friend Barack called last night
That’s right. Barack Obama called ME last night. At my home. Early evening. He talked to me about voting today and gave me a number to call if I needed a ride. It was great, except I couldn’t seem to get his attention (or a word in edgewise). The connection was good, too. I just don’t understand why the guy would call and not let me say anything.
And I thought I was special.
UPDATE: He just called again. I’m beginning to think it might be a recording. Nuts.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Now Michelle Obama has called. It was a nice change-of-pace. The race is close, she said, urging me to call my friends. Hello, friends.

Yeah, well, Barack Obama held my hand when I was frightened AND came to see my play.
