These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

One of my co-workers always takes off Election Day to work the polls, and this year she already requested Wednesday off as well, to recover. I can't blame her.

I'm going to get up early tomorrow and vote before work, in the hopes the lines aren't too long. I'll take a book and food.

Punishingly Intricate

Bailey looks like she could be part border collie, which would explain wanting everyone in one room. Needs to have her flock together!

Amy, job-ma for S.

For once the dogs slept in this morning: the St. Bernard did not keep me up half the night with his panting (it shakes the house, seriously), and the Golden Retriever did not start whining at 5AM to be let out! I have no idea why, unless it's because I put them all to bed at 10PM, which their body clocks would have thought was 11PM.

Still, lovely to get a full night's rest without canine disturbances.

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

I'm going to get up early tomorrow and vote before work, in the hopes the lines aren't too long. I'll take a book and food.

Also, bring:

  • water
  • fully-charged phone
  • candy
  • umbrella
  • garbage bags
  • wet wipes
  • a change of underwear
  • guide dog
  • hand-cranked radio
  • hunting knife
  • fish hooks and fishing line
  • water purification tablets
  • matches
  • lifejacket
  • gold bullion

Thrive to spite them

One of my cousin's wives posted a picture of her grandmother's Halloween costume.

hunting knife

You don't know my neighborhood, man. It's semi-automatic weapons all the way.

fully-charged phone

I will charge my phone!

Sadly, the place I vote is the rec center where I work out, and they don't have wifi, so I can't liveblog my wait.

Fortunately, I live in a redonkulously liberal neighborhood, so at least the wait in line should be festive.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

How many wives does your cousin have?

I'm sick home from work, though I'm monitoring requests from my desk here if need be.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

We're going to try to vote before work, too. We'll see how it goes, but I am not anticipating a wait.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's because all of our schools are polling places and there is a security risk with unvetted adults traipsing through schools when kids are present.

I don't get this. I have voted in many schools (and had the school I went to be a polling place!). You put the polls in an area that has a direct route to the outside, and put someone to guard the internal door.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

OK, now I don't have tomorrow off any more.
