This has been a busy week of receptions. We get so many invites it’s hard to stay on top of them all..On Tuesday, Janelle and I went to the Natural Products Day reception. Because of votes, we couldn’t break away to make it right when the reception started, so we missed out on the free goodie bag. But they still had hors d’oeuvres and wine and beer. And cat food. Random, I know. But it was fun. And Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) was there speaking. He seems like a pretty decent guy despite his party affiliation. :) His son was with him too.
Last night, we went to another reception. One of Janelle’s friends is the Federal Relations Assistant for the State University of New York (SUNY) and they were having a reception in the Cannon Caucus room. It’s one of those things to showcase the university system and how awesome it is. They had an open bar, which is always a big draw for hill staffers, and excellent beef brisket from NY cows and some other hors d’oeuvres. It was a nice little event. Little tidbit: Renee Fleming did her undergrad at SUNY Potsdam. Don’t ask me how I know that, but I do.
Tonight, we’re going to the Women in Government Relations Spring Gala. It’s at Union Station with live music, a raffle for a super cool vaca in Jamaica, good food, dancing, and good times.
