I'll vote after I get home from class, so in the 1 or 2 pm range when I figure the polling place will be the least busy. Still, it's great to go in the early morning or late night when it's busiest and say hello to neighbors, and see fellow citizens participating enthusiastically in the democratic process.
Somerville is set up so that you can walk to your polling place easily -- there's an advantage to being one of the most densely packed cities in the world.
Americans! I'm off to bed now. Try not to elect anyone before I wake up. Have fun storming the castle!

You don't let us have any fun.
The last thing DH said to me as he left for work: "Don't do anything to embarrass the Democratic Party today!"
Oh, lordy. My doctor has me off booze until at least December. I'm really gonna miss it tonight.
Calli, I gave up booze for a month a few years back and it was surprisingly easy. I was still going to bars on a regular basis. Giving up chocolate for Lent is much harder.
Giving up the booze hasn't been hard so far (although I miss wine with dinner, a little). And I doubt it'll be a problem tomorrow. It's just tonight that I really wish I could watch the returns come in over a double scotch, neat.
Took mac and me about 30 min to vote. I decided not to get there right at 6 as soon as I found out there was no school. I plan to be on cnn all day.
Calli, I'll drink for you tonight.

The last thing I said to The Boy when I left was "Make sure you vote for that guy -- you know, the one on TV."
