I think the problem has been solved by now. Geez, people. Hire Virgos.
HA!! So, so true!!
The pain has eased up a little today. I'm sick of these little pain ducks nibbling at me.
{{{sj}}} right back. I feel for you, sweetie. I've never been a chronic pain sufferer, but the last couple of weeks, what with the bone bruise leading to nerve issues, and now having wrenched the hell out of my back freeing Jasmine from under the fence just ups my admiration and respect for the people I know who deal so gracefully with chronic pain.
Me? Not so much with the graceful.
Jasmine, at least, has had the good grace to look sheepish as she lies at my feet on the bed.

Thanks. I don't feel like I am graceful at all. I complain too much, and I haven't figured out how to deal with this and still get done what I need to get done yet.

I haz voted - 12 state props and 24 city/county props. SF is occasionally delightfully ridiculous. I do like the fact that it's preferential voting for Supervisor - I don't think my first two choices will win, but at least I can vote for them first and then for the dude I consider the lesser of two evils.
I'm not around much, but hugs and ~ma to thems who need it. I am with Barb in the chronic pain issue, and I get to have a root canal today. Um, yay? Dude better give me nitrous, is all I'm saying.
there was a line at my place, but it was for zone 1210. I live in 1211!!! No line. Shame too, I was all geared up for it. Bottle of water, ziplock of cheerios, a good pen. But I'd much rather have no line. Sorry Vortex. But be happy so many of your neighbors are voting!
Oh ya. And no sticker!!! WTF?!?! Must be the economy or something.
I cannot believe I have to sit through class tonight! gah! I want to get home ASAP and watch returns!
No worries Nora. It takes a couple weeks for the Supreme Court to decide who won. You have plenty of time.

I vote we skip 43 altogether (would that the world could do the same) and go straight for 44. How perfect would it be if that were the thread we were turning over today.
BFF's husband got to the polls at 5AM (they open at 6 in VA). First in line was a 62 year old African American man who was voting for the first time. He was really excited, had people take his picture next to the VOTE HERE sign, taking pictures of the people in line. He'd been there since 2AM because he wanted to be first. SO CUTE.

WOW. 2AM?? That's hardcore!!!
Though it makes me sad that he's 62 and this is the first time he's voting, yeesh!
I walked past my polling place (which is all of two short blocks away, yay living in the city), and it was pretty empty. Silly making everyone absentee vote! I could see inside, and there were maybe 20 people in there (at about 10AM), but I"ll bet half were workers. No line outside. But I went to the coffeeshop nearby and they said they've not yet been that busy on a weekday (they just re-opened in that location about six weeks ago). They didn't realize they were right near a polling place! And a guy who had an "I Voted" sticker gave me one when I said I was sad absentee voters didn't get any. Yay!
