Just saw this on CV via Facebook. Too funny!

J Wesley Casteen. This morning, I drove to the State Board of Elections in Raleigh to file my Notice of Candidacy for the U.S. House of Representatives - 7th Dist. covering Southeastern North Carolina.

I arrived to a parking lot with news vans and a building full of reporters. My first thought: "The cat is out of the bag ... They know that I'm running!" ... Then, reality set in, and I realized that the hubbub was about Clay Aiken filing at the same time!

Edited to correct Facebook originator name

I'm not going to go back and try to get the instagram pictures. Just too many!

I don't normally get emotional about Clay very often, but watching the video of him filinlg made me a bit teary -- in a proud way. I'm so thrilled that he's committed to doing this!

Anybody got a thread title?

I just saw this quote on Facebook. Thought it was appropriate for today.

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be! Ralph Waldo Emerson

Clay Aiken has written his own destiny!

@clayaiken: The shutdown and the sequester have caused enough harm already to our military personnel and their families.

@clayaiken: Any more cuts to our military is unacceptable. This is an issue where both parties should agree.

Quote:

@clayaiken: So many of you have given to our campaign today. Please chip in $10 more to get us to our goal for the week https://t.co/xq9blxCu0Y #nc02

@clayaiken: Thanks to all who #StandWithClay by giving. Please join them https://t.co/xq9blxCu0Y

Thanks merrieeee and ldyj for keeping us aware of all the Clay appearances.

Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm volunteering from 8:30am to 5 or 6 pm. I come home and keep falling asleep until bedtime. I may be more tired than Clay although he has a really rough schedule. How does he keep looking so good? Wonder if Cheryl is still working for him? We have a woman who is our client facilitator at the library where we do taxes. She does an amazing job of keeping everyone who walks in the door happy and helps them fill out our required forms. She is in her late fifties and can't find a job so she has volunteered with us for the last 4 years. I am going to try to see if any of the others will chip in and give her some cash at the end of tax season.

I'm happy to keep this up and running around here, but sometimes it's tough for me. It may be later in the evening before I get caught up myself!

From twitter last night:
