I am star-struck. To see someone that I have been reading about for over 10 years is awesome.
A friend of mine invited me to the City CarShare's fifth anniversary party (thanks LL). It was quite alternative, held in a contemporary art gallery, complete with recycled drink tickets that were fridge magnets.
Then, I heard that Nancy Pelosi will be receiving an award. Sure enough, after all the standard opening greetings, there she was, Ms. House Democratic Leader herself! What a passionate speaker. Every word was spoken with conviction. Of course, she received an award b/c her support help fund a very noble cause.
It's truly amazing. This was a small function, with maybe less than 100 people present. And there she was, the most powerful Democrat in DC, giving us her time.
It was one of those moments, where I have to ask myself, what have I done to change the world lately?
