Sessions come and go

The end of session is always a busy time of year.... We had a decent meeting last night, with a fun, if quick, trip to Andrew's that followed. So many of our members are involved in some aspect of the legislative session that as it wraps up the tension mounts and I think it was good to go and relax for a while....This Friday's Drinking Liberally should be a lot of fun as session wraps up on Friday too and the aides will be pouring into the street once it is over...Which was fairly late last year, hopefully this year things will end at a reasonable hour.

It was a good night to be a Democrat at Andrews last night.... Jeff Ryan was having drinks with Janee Murphy, who was in town for a successful Hillsborough Democrat day. Rep. Karen Thurman was having dinner with Sen. Margolis and between the two tables were 15 Leon Young Democrats, it was nice.

Of course this now sounds like some sort of gossip column which isn't my goal... The LCYDs will have a brief training coming up soon on collecting redistricting petitions and the locals are going to start seeing us at their local events and malls collecting signatures, check the links on the side for more information on the redistricting initiative .

Also check out the Florida Young Democrat link for more information regarding the leadership conference June 11, 2005 and the state's website for more information regarding the JJ Gala.

This weekend is the election for FDP Chair, I will try to keep you all informed as it happens, or as close to as it happens as I can.
