Last night as Holly and I were settling down to watch the latest episode of Chuck, my phone rang. I didn’t recognize the number so I figured that it was another survey to ask me who I’ll be voting for at the Republican State Convention in a few weeks. I answered the phone expecting to have a delay while the call was routed to some operator in a call center. Instead, my greeting was answered immediately with an actual person. The caller asked if he was speaking with Jeremiah, which he obviously was, so I answered in the affirmative. He then introduced himself as Rob Bishop. This is where my mind went weird.

Yesterday I received a phone call from somebody with Senator Bennett’s campaign inviting me to have breakfast with the Senator this morning at IHOP in Centerville. Because I’m taking my job as state delegate so seriously, I jumped at the opportunity to meet with him and ask some questions.
I arrived a few minutes early to try and ensure a spot close to Senator Bennett. It worked. I sat next to him for the duration. Granted, he was actually standing, but I was so close that I could touch him. (Despite a request that I received, I didn’t actually touch his cheek to see if his skin would crumble as a powerful vampire’s would. His hand did fail to turn to dust as I shook it though.)
