TCG will want to watch the debate. I will require wine or possibly gin.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

I'll be watching football. So, possibly also suffering.

There is a watch party in my neighborhood that I've said I'd go to. I need to meet more like minded folks near me, so I'm going to give it a shot.

I can't decide about the debate.
In excellent news, my copies of Cloudbound have shipped, so I will be able to take a copy to Paris and Kraków for pictures.

Punishingly Intricate
I'm watching at our friends bar, where the heckling will be on point, but I'm pretty anxious about it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm very anxious about the debate. Like Gud said, the bar is a lot lower for Trump. He just has to appear "dominant" and he'll win; Hilary has to stay relaxed. Between his utter idiocy and her awkward body language when she's tense, I don't know how long I can stand to watch it.

Part of me feels like there's no way Trump can stay on message, and he'll lose his tiny little mind and start spewing nasty bigoted stuff. (Of course, the people who are going to vote for him love that, but those people were NEVER going to be swayed to vote for Clinton.) I mean, he can't even stick to the teleprompter at speeches that were written ahead of time, that he (in theory) was able to practice, or at least read over before stepping behind the podium.
But then, yeah -- *if* he manages to stay on message and doesn't explode like a pressure cooker full of hate, that will probably count as a "win." (How is THAT the bar we're setting for our POTUS? Even George W. Bush had a higher bar to clear than "Don't say bigoted stuff in front of a hot microphone.")

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Fortunately, the Saints are on the Monday Night Football game, so I won't be tempted to watch.

That is excellent news, Sparky! Mine has also shipped, hooray! I am not taking my copy anywhere exotic, but it's as making me anxious sitting in Preparing to Ship all weekend.
