Today's exercise in futility: Left a message for our VA-5 congressman asking if he was having a town hall during the February recess and if not, why not. Will call again tomorrow. 5calls.org/issue/februa...

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

My new "hobby" is calling my GOP rep (VA-05) every couple days. It seems like a waste of time, but it's something. Today's topic was Gaza. Each time, someone has answered the phone pretty quickly, which tells me he may not be getting a lot of calls. Let's light those phones up, shall we? 5calls.org

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

Called my congressman to ask about this. I was told my concerns had been noted and would be passed along. Uh huh. Sure.

2025 is starting off with a bang. My car was broken into yesterday in the parking lot of a local trail along with two others. We were clearly being watched (they knew where to look), which is creepy AF. So ... friendly reminder to not leave valuables in your car, not even hidden under a blanket.

Just went for a walk for the first time since it snowed last week. Glorious! Kudos to all the people and businesses who clear snow from their sidewalks, not because they have to but because it’s the right thing to do. And to the rest, get with the program. It’s been 10 days already.
