Sheesh, ita !, that's miserable. Did you eat?

I ended up snarfing two meatballs, because in my head, somehow I thought I was going to have time to cook this weekend, but with events not letting out until 9:30, an hour from my house, yeah, not so much. Gonna have to figure out something better tomorrow.

I'm sure there are worse pilots than Mockingbird Lane - but, no real comedy, not very frightening horror, no real suspense. Awful pacing which may be what distinguished it from other pilots. Quite often shows that are worse written than ML have good direction and pacing.

Of interest to some Buffistas. Rebecca Johnson (no I don't know her ) teaches her kids a simple test to identify passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb it is passive voice.

I love that "by zombies" test.

Nothing~ma your way, Tyop. (Okay, I'm totally leaving that typo. If you typo typo, you know you're tired. Sleep now.)

Nothing~ma, Typo.

And I am off to join the massive lines for first day early voting! The degree of my giddiness over this is almost embarrassing. I even talked DH into early voting this year. He likes going and standing with the neighbors on election day, but the tales we told of the fun last time swayed him.

The boys are voting in a different county than we are because we have retained our registration at our house that is under construction in Palm Beach County for various reasons, and the boys are registered in Broward where we live.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I hope to early vote today, but it depends on how early mac gets up and if will remain calm about being home alone for a time.

ALL THE ANIMALS ARE IN THE SAME ROOM!!

No one is getting within touching distance, but no hissing or barking at all.

Bailey did better last night, no barking or baying, only whining for about an hour. Then again at 2:30 at which point I let her out to see if peeing was needed. Then both of us were up at 6:30 and she did her business and now resting beside me on the couch.

I am looking forward to meeting her!

I'll be voting today too, hopefully.

Time to market.

So, I seem to have hurt my foot when running up the stairs at 2:30 am to check on the sicko (who is much better.) It's really, really sore in the middle part of the foot, on top, even when I am sitting still. I don't think I twisted it or anything; it didn't hurt at the time, and it wasn't until I woke up this morning that it started hurting. What should I do?

I should check to see if MA has early voting -- it occurred to me that if I do indeed "take off" a week in November to deal with Mom's apartment in PA, I would have to schedule it around Election Day. Because while Obama is a lead-pipe cinch for MA, there are other races that aren't.

At this point it would take video footage of Elizabeth Warren vivisecting her (adorable) old dog to dissuade me from voting for her. So I don't think I have to worry that something would come up that would change my mind.
