Working on Capitol
Hill, my husband was under constant pressure. After one late-night
session, he came home exhausted and went straight to bed. When I turned
out the light, he sat up in a panic. "Is everything okay in the house?"
he asked." Yes, honey," I answered. "I locked the doors and turned
down the heat." "That's good," he said, lying back down, his eyelids heavy.
"What about the Senate?"
