Last night, I signed on Facebook and saw this posted on my wall:

I read your profile and I had to wonder when did you stop caring about the things that God cares about? You have gotten so tolerant of whatever people do is fine with you even if it goes against what God says. You would never ever waver as a girl growing up. I admired that in you. Now you agree so strongly with what is against Gods principles and His word. Was it your school or where you work that made you change? I know that I take a risk of telling you the truth but God has told me the truth and I know you know His word also. So what changed you? Love c.

A little background, and my response, are after the break.

a.k.a. Help!

I am a California Dem and have supported Obama since 2004 and have been volunteering and calling for the campaign all year and will continue to do so through election day.

I was very excited about attending the election night rally and even bought my plane tickets and prepaid for my hotel room in Chicago. Then today, as soon as I saw how to sign up for tickets, I tried to, only to find that I'm relegated to the waiting list with probably very little hope of getting a ticket.

I am not mad at the campaign, obviously there are logistics they have to worry about, but I am hoping that someone out there on the internets might have gotten a ticket and would be willing to allow me to use your "guest" spot?! Pretty please?!

Please email me at (melissa at emeybee dot com) if it's at all possible. Thank you!

PS. I have been a lurker for a long time but very rarely comment or post. I know there has been a lot of discussion lately over what constitutes a worthwhile diary, so if consensus is that I should delete this then I will. But I really want to go to this event and am hoping someone will have mercy on me. (Please!)
