Timelies all!
Home now. I have a one day work week this week. I go in tomorrow, but Wed. and Thursday I have late morning appointments, and decided to not bother trying to go in after that. Friday is a holiday.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was just reminded that Friday is a holiday here, too! I think I might not tell my mother so I can go to a noon movie instead of to see my father.
...my ambitions have gotten very small.

Not a holiday here. At least, not the day off from work kind.

I can remember when Election Day was a holiday ... at least, I remember school being closed, but that may have been because the schools were polling places. Luckily, Friday IS a holiday here.

As a public service, the Washington Post has a "Relax 2016" playlist - brief (less than a minute) videos of things that are low key and generally restful. Like this.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I am finding xkcd today oddly affecting: [link]

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Misha is in Cincinnati, right near campus, and I find out about it after I drive home?
Oh well. I'm exhausted, anyway, and probably shouldn't be on my feet anymore today -- I was using my walker today.

I just got off the bus at 5:35 right by where Mischa Collins is supposed to be, and there was already a big crowd of young women on the sidewalk. I'd estimate about 40 people.
Also, we got canvassed in person for the first time today - just a sticker left on the door - and Dillo is very excited about it!

I shall do some basic grocery shopping this evening then order a calzone for tomorrow while watching happy movies and surfing election websites intermittently. Note to self: get a universal remote for the BluRay player so I can watch the commentary on Fellowship of the Ring. I need to listen to some Hobbit actors being snarky and talking over Sean Astin.
