Ignoring politics as much as possible this evening. I've voted. I've encouraged others to vote. Now I want to sleep until the winner is announced.
In the mean time, I went through the packages of DVDs I've been piling up. I'm replacing our VHS Disney movies and have been hiding the packages from K-Bug. She is at work tonight, so I went through to take inventory and check the used ones. Out of the 23 movies, 4 were new in wrapper, 1 is seriously scratched up (sold like new, so I need to deal with that), and 2 were duplicates (not sure how I managed that - Alice in Wonderland and Lion King is anyone is interested). There are still another 7 that I just ordered over the weekend that haven't arrived yet.
I'm pretty sure I talked someone out of a Romney vote tonight. Unfortunately, it was only to a third party, and it was only on the basis that the Mormon vote here will carry that side regardless, but I'll take a win where I've got one.
Steph, when I first did GOTV calls, I thought it was a typo for gov't.
I went to a book reading/signing! It was fun, except the few men in the audience asked all of the (mostly dumb) questions. I would have asked one, but couldn't come up with anything better! Difference between men and women.
I can't believe how many Christmas gifts I have already gotten. How many = three. But still!

Pretty impressive grassroots organizing, and check out the discussion in the comments.
Wow. According to the latest numbers, my parents' town is 90% without power. It was 80% a few days ago. Apparently repairing the lines ended up cutting off power to a few more people.
so i am sitting in my office late and apparently I didn't move much for awhile because the automatic light shut off on me.
The Voice is bringing the Journey! AHHH YEAH!
I'm looking at the website of the Republican candidate for governor, and he has nothing at all about social issues. This seems suspicious.

Oh lord -- ours turns off after I swear five minutes. MAYBE ten, but it shuts off on me all the damn time.
Can sugar free hot cocoa mix o bad? It's a little off tasting but I can't tell if that's from SF, staleness, or bad.
