THREE WEEKS

You may have noticed that until yesterday I went nearly two weeks without updating this page. Where have I been? Working. Campaign season has technically been in full swing since Labor Day, but only with the advent of the presidential debates has life outside of the office cease to exist almost entirely. I've managed to keep updating OSF and AP, but it's a bit more difficult to write about the trivialities of District life when said life consists primarily of wall-to-wall election-watching. And if you've noticed the overheated and even hysterical rhetoric coming from both sides of the spectrum, it's nearly impossible to think in trivialities.

So, consider this the warning that I should have filed a fortnight ago: not much is going to happen here in the next three weeks. Or -- barring a repeat of Florida, perhaps this time in Ohio, Pennsylvania or even Florida once again -- longer.
