Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, Typo, that sounds really scary. Glad things are OK on the natural disaster level, at least.

I just sent an email to coworkers about phone banking for Obama, which I think is probably sketchy, but I titled it "personal request" and said explicitly that it has nothing to do with our work. It's just, HQ is right by our office! Why not do it??

my Victorian England class? My lecturer was really excited about the possibility that I'll be writing the end-of-the-year paper on the Doctor Who episode (when I mentioned the episode, he offered it as a subject!). I'm trying to get his approval for writing the book reporty semester paper on Neverwhere.

Oh that sounds ages better than my college Victorian literature class where we mostly read terrible and terribly dry political political and religious treatises.

I just had my first political argument with my ex-military co-worker. I made it all the way to the last day of the election. sheesh. Now, my head hurts.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Typo, that is a crazy phone call to get.

I am having a hard time focusing on anything this morning. I have a ton of work, but instead of motivating me, I feel overwhelmed. And I feel a bit feverish. I just got over a cold, I cannot get another.

Ah shit. I went to www.canivote.org just to see if it gave me the hours for voting and it said I wasn't registered to vote. I went there a week ago to check if I was still registered just out of paranoia and everything was fine. WTF? I'll bet I'll have to wait two hours tomorrow morning to not get to vote. I'll check later today, maybe it's a glitch, but I've got a bad feeling it isn't. But geez, nothing has changed and I've voted lots since I registered at this address.

Because books.

Gud, that's really weird. But thank you for posting that -- I wasn't sure of my polling place, and now I know where it is.

Then you should be fine. It's not like you can un-register to vote.

Staying positive!

It says my wife is registered to vote, so a glitch looks unlikely.

That's especially true in Chicago, where not even dying gets you unregistered.

Speaking of which, my plans to vote early fell through. How bad are lines supposed to be in Chicago? If I show up when the polls open at 6:00 am, will I be OK?
