I look more rad than Lutheranism

538 has Clinton back up around 75%. That makes me feel better.

The NYT poll had her at 80% this morning and 81% around 1:00.

I just feel like, holy shit, a LOT can happen in a month. The election can't get here soon enough.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

it's always something. Always several things, actually.

SO TRUE

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I follow up on medical bills a lot, and I don't even have a lot of medical expenses! But I'm always calling to say "Is this right? It seems like a lot." And a fair amount of the time, they have billed me for more than I actually owe.

In other political news, all those protests by women in Poland seem to have worked and gov't has backed off on the proposed legislation. It also stopped raining here today, so I finally got to walk up the hill to the castle and visit the dragon.

I get home the evening of the 12th, and the evening of the 13th I get observed for my promotion review - when my jet lagged body will think it is 1:30 in the morning. Woo?

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've reverted to the bad habit of checking five thirty-eight multiple times a day. Every time I check, Hilary is doing better. Polls-only now has her at 78.8.

The now-cast has her much higher, which means she'll probably continue to improve her polls-only score for a while.

There is a lot of wow of different flavors in your post, Sparky. Wow.

My good news of the day is that I'm having lunch with an old coworker tomorrow, and my secret dream was to go to Five Guys, but I assumed she would want a kale salad, but no! She wants to go to Five Guys! (NB: I had a kale salad for lunch today.)

And that's the power and gas. I'll call landlord this evening and tell him it's all his responsibility as of Nov. 1.

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

Tonight is massage. I had therapy at lunch. We have a plan for Mac's current nasty mood and constant desire to be at this friends' house. He'll have to get stuff done a day early and the grandma who will not say no and keeps putting me into the role of the bad guy can deal with them every Friday. I will start making Friday plans.

I am jealous of massage. I really need one. Ooh, I just remembered I'm going somewhere next week that should have a walk-in massage option....yes.

Tonight I'm playing trivia with friends. Trying to motivate to get anything done. Helped by the fact that I got the new Connie Willis from the library, but reading it was stressing me out because I just wanted to smack the heroine. A lot.
