No kidding. We don't have a DVR, but right now is the one time I would kill for one. (We don't watch that much TV, but the other night, I think during Big Bang Theory, there were back-to-back Romney ads at one point, and I just wanted to shoot the TV. Because I am Elvis like that.)
It was weird being in Denver and seeing the Romney ads; we don't get them here at all. However, we do have Elizabeth Warren and Scott Brown ads at practically every commercial break. And even the houses that have Scott Brown signs up do not have Romney signs up. I find it very funny considering Romney was governor here.
In Utah, a vote for Obama is a protest vote. I'll be proudly protesting. I'd get an Obama bumper sticker, but I wouldn't put it past some of my neighbors to do something to my car.
I don't have TV at home, but it's always on at work (and stuff has started showing up on Hulu). Teppy is me, plus a side of "Shut up, Josh Mandel."
I am trying not to wallow in the self-pity pool that I dug for myself on Friday. Doing some yard work was good for me yesterday. I am doing exercise while watching football today and also decorating for Halloween during half-time.
Right now, printout out the mailing labels for the two new sales on ebay.
Oh, God, Josh Mandel, Boy Wonder of Ohio. I don't actually really know anything bad about him except that he's the state treasurer, which for some reason means I have to make out the check for my car registration to "Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel." This strikes me as really excessive branding; shouldn't we just make it out to "Ohio DMV" or something? That and, I hate his smug face.
I don't get any television service so I haven't seen ads. When we were in Maine we watched some TV and I saw a Vote Yes on 1 ad (this would be voting to legalize same sex marriage) and we saw a Romney ad. I heard one radio ad calling out the opponent for being an extremist Tea Party member.
Driving home on Thursday we listened to NPR (Will's preference, he's a news junkie) and I got so sick of hearing about the VP debate. We traveled through a couple of areas so we'd switch the station and listen to preview for Thrill in the Ville over and over.
Sending you vibes, ita, to get through this Sunday.
I think I am just as glad that I don't live in a swing state. I'm already too stressed out about the election.
I'm already too stressed out about the election.
I think I have to even stop looking at 538, because of Romney's jump in the polls. It's freaking me out too hard.
Timelies all!
Went to brunch with my MIL, then went to a showing of Israeli art. Groceries, and home.
I just put up the announcement for the annual gift exchange - email me if you want in. I am going post to the FB group also.
