on the trail

I emailed John McCain. That's right. I wrote, "Can I borrow your water level meter?"

It's true there's a John McCain at my firm, as mentioned in a previous post. In that post I mentioned that I knew who he was, but we'd never spoken. But I feel speaking is imminent.

4:20 pm, yesterday: I email John McCain.
5:05 pm, yesterday: John McCain emails me back.
8:15 am, today: I leave a message on John McCain's answering machine.

Now it's all a waiting game.

---update---
9:24 am, today: We speak.

The end.
