Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But I'm working as a poll worker, so I think I'll just wear jeans and running shoes, and a blue infinity scarf. That won't be too partisan, right?

Unless they are running on gang rules!

Their November golf holiday in the States has a long tradition though. My mum just told me just the other day that in 2004, people came up to them when they were in Georgia and apologised for the re-election of GWB. And in 2008, also in Georgia, different people apologised for the country electing a n*****. WTF?

Holy crap.

No pantsuits, so will be wearing a big poofy dress with the VOTES FOR WOMEN/SUFFRAGE NOW sash from Halloween.

That is fantastic.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I'm getting ready to leave for the polls and I'm already crying. I never thought this would happen in my lifetime, you guys. I'm overwhelmed.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Just passed my polling place on the way to work--polls won't open for another 40 minutes but there are already five people waiting.

The line here is long, but it's moving.

not your mom's socks.

Zen (from wayback) I'm so glad for your good news.

We got to our place at 7am, the line was already out the door. I found a white jacket but amended it as planned with B.org nerdery, photos up in the usual places.

Inigo, I hope we win.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I voted on Oct. 20 (yay early voting! although there was still a 20 minute wait). But I'm wearing a pantsuit and my striped wicked witch socks. After work I'll pick up lemons and bourbon for hot toddies (one of my results watching guests has a cold) and go home and fret until the results come in.

Our wings are not tired.

I am getting no work done! And there is much to do. Sigh.

In better news, I am having a great time reading and seeing the voting experiences. So excited! This is it!

Clothing update: Run Like a Girl t-shirt and sweatpants.

This is the first time there's been a line at my polling place. This is a good sign. There's several moms with their daughters, and many white-haired women. I'm going to cry again.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I just turned on a live broadcast from a local news network that is at Susan B. Anthony's gravestone. It is just COVERED with stickers. I can't stop crying. I don't know if this will work: [link]

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm wearing a black pantsuit and a blue scarf today. I got to the polls about a half hour after they opened, and it took me about 45 minutes from when I got in line to when I got back to my car. I was worried when I got towards the front of the line, as it looked like they didn't have any I Voted stickers. Anyhow, I got my sticker, so all is well.
