		<description><![CDATA[I spent an instructive couple of hours this evening making phone calls on behalf of the Obama campaign. Yes, I am one of those annoying people who interrupts your dinner to ask who you&#8217;ll be voting for. (I&#8217;m in Colorado, one of the few states where the answer actually matters.)

By coincidence, that Sunday was the 25th anniversary of the Folsom Street Fair, which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My life is lived in multiples.

I've read books, articles, and blogs about multicultural marriage, living, and child-raising. I have written about being a third-culture kid, raising a bilingual child, and living and trying to work in a foreign country.
