Someone I know on Twitter is watching the election returns with her 3 year old, who is hopped up on candy:
flea, I follow that same person. Her tweets tonight are giving me a much needed happy.
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Also, $6 billion for the election. $8billion spent on Halloween this year. It's all perspective.
what do they count as halloween $$ I wonder, my $4 on poster board I bet wasn't counted. That makes it just worse.

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

With Chris Murphy winning in Connecticut, remember this -- Joe Lieberman is officially history. We retired him.
Yay!

I am pretty sure poster board did not count. It is all of those damned dog costumes.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Keep an eye on New Hampshire. The pre-election polling told a clear story - Obama by a small but stable, and statistically significant, margin. The only real question is whether the polling will be a good predictor (which it generally is). New Hampshire should be about the first swing state to report full results. If they match the polling (about 3% pro-O), things look very nice for Obama nationwide.

OK, I followed Pix's lead, but this just cracked me up.

I think I'm going to step away from the computer for a while, watch The Avengers for the fifth time, and have myself a locavore Tom Collins.
