The Eclectic WAHM

So this week here in Denver we're hosting the Democratic National Convention. This makes for a pretty crazy time, especially for those of us who are involved in working at the events. Both my husband and I have been working a lot this week downtown. He's an IATSE stagehand, so he's gotten to set up lighting for the Today Show, the Tonight Show and other NBC stuff, he's run camera at events for people like Ted Turner and Madeline Albright. Lucky guy even met Ben Affleck today!

As for me, I've seen Madeline Albright, Bill Clinton and Walter Mondale along with dignitaries from countries all over the world. My favorite moment so far has been in the ballroom at the complex where I work. There were just a few of us in there and I was checking on the setup for the night's event. I picked the right time to check up there because I got to enjoy watching and listening to James Taylor (swoon!!) do his sound check while Tony Bennett waited to do his. I had to get back to other duties before Tony sang, but to hear James Taylor live and up close with just a few other folks around was just amazing.

So...not so much a working from home week but that's ok. When I do work outside the house, I almost always have an interesting story to tell! I love my part time job down there. I've seen some amazing things and met some incredible people. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!
