Living in Ohio, the ads are non-stop. We don't watch much TV, so the only time I'm see the ads is at the gym, where there are TVs always on in the cardio machine area. And then because I haven't yet seen them, I always manage to attract attention to myself by snorting "Oh, PLEASE" during McCain ads, or saying "YEAH!" during Obama ads.

I shouldn't be allowed out among the humans.

That's it-- I've officially lost it. I just downloaded a-ha's Hunting High and Low.

I'm bopping in my chair to "Take on Me" and the dogs are looking at me funny.

I get my political tv fixes at the gym. It's my motivation and reward. I get to watch Olbermann, Sanchez, C-Span, etc. I find myself actually wanting to stay on the treadmill longer.

I'm such a political junkie at this point. I noticed my obsession growing through September and now I'm on full tweaker mode. It's going to be one hell of a come down off the ride in November.

I've begun to burn out. I just want the election to get here and stay up watching the results. I wonder how much burn out plays in the last weeks of the election. I'm not sure I even want to watch the last debate, is there anything new to hear? If there is, I can read about it afterwards.

My husband and I have discovered up here that stores have seasons. Like, you can't buy a fan anymore. You can buy a heater. No fans until it stops being cold. At least, not at Target.

Sort of on the same topic, is it practical to freeze a whole peach? I am drinking a smoothie made out of chocolate soy milk and frozen peach slices, and it is OMG so yummy. Can I buy up the last of the season's peaches and have them live in my freezer for six months?

What in the hell does ACORN have to do with Obama? They're talking about it like it's his organization.

He used to be an organizer, didn't he???

Sure -- but I'd slice them first.

Wrod. Here's hoping we don't get a McCain/Palin burn bag this time. Since we don't actually get to kill them if that happens, unlike most people who get burned that particular way. God, I'd love to see Matthews' face if I said that on the teevee. He'd shut up for ten seconds. Keith already fucks up my heart rate, though. Sometimes it's hard to be disabled and explain why election coverage makes you flush. I wish I could say it was the treadmill. Of course, democracy makes me happy. But I look weird if I love it more than a friend.

So, it's not so bad, 'cause it's a dry snow?

We're known for our dry snow, it's the famous-in-some-circles Utah powder. I won't guarantee you won't run into some rain/snow mix, AKA "wintery mix", but you won't need Huskies to get where you're going.

Oh lord. Obama was in Cincy today, speaking to about 15,000 people. In the comments section of the newspaper article about it, there are comments like "You know why McCain holds his rallies in the evening? HIS supporters HAVE JOBS!" and "I drove past the cars waiting to get in to the rally, and most had only 1 person. Seems all these 'forward thinkers' would have carpooled or organized shuttles if they REALLY cared about the environment!"

Oh, snap. Lame.
