18 weeks -- give or take a week.

Less than five months.

I was just asked if I'd be willing to work on a key committee at state party level.

I'll be able to get the ear of the party at national level.

It took 18 weeks.

You don't like where the party is going?  You don't like where this country is headed?  Don't let them take you without a fight.  I'm not; I'm going to kick, scream, claw my way back to the country in which I once lived as a free woman.

What the sam-fook are you waiting for? 

It's really not that hard, you'll need to make a choice between a couple hours of crappy television or actually meeting with people one night a week and maybe every other weekend for a handful of hours.

Go on, try it.  Take a friend with you for support.  Go to your first Meetup or Democratic Party meeting.

Let me know what happens.  Do it again next month.

And I'll let you know what happens in 20 weeks.
