Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

sumi, sick trumps going out to vote.

We voted over the weekend, actually, and droppped off the ballots yesterday. So much handier than standing in line.

I'd like to have a word with CHM. Actually, is the kid her only child? I've known moms like that--until they had more than one. That usually diffuses their attention and energy so they don't have it all to spend hovering over their one chick.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm voting after work, so I can bring Matilda with me. I don't think she's missed a visit to the polls yet, and I don't intend her to miss this one.

Compassionately intolerant

I was actually going to let myself off the hook for voting today but made it anyway. Go me with the civic duty.

I'm a little appalled by a couple of the races, but all we can do is hope for the best.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I voted. I feel slightly guilty for skipping the judges, but I didn't have time to research 82 (no joke) judges.

The signage for my polling place was pathetic. If you are just going to scrawl the precinct and ward numbers on a piece of copy paper, at least find someone with decent handwriting and a sharpie! And the instructions for the touchscreen failed to explain how to get to the screen with the "submit ballot" button.

Coding and Sleeping

My ballot wasn't too terribly long, but there were definitely plenty of jobs which, as always, make me scratch my head and wonder "why do we hold elections for this?"

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

My DH is with you on that one. We're voting when he gets home from work.

And aurelia, are you in Calif? The number of judges was mind blowing. Luckily for me, DH went through and figured out who to vote for.

I also skipped the judges, who took up a whole page. I don't vote blindly.

I wasn't really happy with who I picked for the higher profile offices either, but at least I know who they are (basically).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Woo hoo, Theo!! I hope this leads to long-term employment for you.
