Hate to make you all jealous, but I have to tell you....

... that I get to participate in my second day of canvassing for the Barack Obama campaign today in Tallahassee, Florida. I waved signs on a busy corner on Saturday (where a fellow Democrat told me, "You really know how to work a corner.&quot , canvassed yesterday for two hours and will be canvassing and making phone calls today.

The canvassing is great exercise, and as a gay male, I never thought in my wildest dreams that I'd be campaigning for a President who actually believes that what my partner and I have is a "legitimate family."

Like I said earlier, sorry to make you all jealous, but, ya' know...some of us are just a little luckier than others.
