I was so tired today. I'm still exhausted from not getting any sleep Sunday night on the boat. I spent the first two lessons supervising three kids who were doing a piece of controlled coursework. I hadn't planned on that, so I had no work with me to do or a computer or anything. I was soooooo bored, and I almost fell asleep. And I was there for two hours.
So, in order to kill boredom, I started working on a campaign strategy for running the Presidential campaign for the future president of Panama. My mind has been buzzing with ideas since this past weekend, and I wrote some of them down today, ways of exploiting the candidate and his family and their contacts. I was putting together a PR strategy for making the candidate look good and be press-friendly. I was starting to come up with some good stuff, but I realised that I need some help. I've never worked on a proper campaign before. So, I went to Amazon and looked for any books on running campaigns. I haven't ordered any yet (I am sooooo broke after this weekend.), but I would like to get a couple.
Maybe nothing will ever come of this. Maybe it's just a pipe dream that will never be reality, but it's okay to dream. And I have to admit, running a Presidential campaign in a tropical paradise would be my dream job. I'm a realist, though (or maybe that's pessimist) so I do realize that it's not going to happen. I want it too badly. And we all know that the things that I want this worst never come to fruition, or if they do, it doesn't work out quite the way I hoped.
