Caffeine IV, STAT!
After an exhausting, emotionally draining (listened to testimony from family members of victims of 9/11 and their opinions on the Arizona 9/11 Memorial), & unexpectedly long work day yesturday, I am in great need of refreshing.
Wednesday started out with my favorite committee mtg, Health (ugh!), followed by a lunch mtg with the folks from the Arizona Free Enterprise Club, Floor, Third Read, and an eight-hour Appropriations Committee meeting. I left for work at 7:00am and returned home after 10:00pm!
Today, no Water and Agriculture Committee mtg but instead, Republican Caucus at 10:15 am. Floor at 1:00 where we have several Third Reads and eight COW Calendars, then a special Appropriations meeting that looks to be lengthy as there is a controversial ELL-related bill on the agenda.
Because of the long day, I am going to be unable to attend the London Bridge Friends of the NRA Banquet taking place at Shugrue's in Lake Havasu City this evening. Although I attempt to attend this event every year, I have yet to make the celebration as they take place on a weeknight during session. Sorry LB Friends of the NRA but KUDOS to all you do!
Note to self: Describe, in future blog post, how the committee meeting was derailed by a Minister representing United Methodist Church and Valley Interfaith Project. Testimony from this "gentleman" blindsided the entire committee membership.
