Sunday Night

There is a group of Hillary delegates from AZ known as the Fab Five - Dana, Debra, Bree, Michael, and Angie. They travelled to several states to volunteer for Clinton, and everywhere they went, Hillary won. Last night we met up with them for drinks and dinner and then headed to the Tri-State Reception here in the hotel for the delegates of AZ, WA, and OR, who are all staying here. The excitement of all those here for the convention is quite contagious.

Today I am headed to the Unconventional Women event, sponsored by the Women's Campaign Forum Foundation; Latina Initiative; Women's Voices. Women Vote; and the White House Project. Michelle Obama is the featured speaker at the convention tonight.

Edit: Forgot to mention that some guy's shirt caught on fire at the reception - I guess he was leaning on a wall where there were candles in these holes. I tried to get a picture, but I couldn't find him.
