Fiona, there's a lot of messages going out not to count on anything, to get out there and vote, so hopefully we won't have the surprise you did. I hope.
Otherwise, tomorrow morning may start of like msbelle's.
Wesley: Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair. Gunn: I vote he's not in charge.

From what I understand the polling on Brexit indicated that it was likely to pass, but nobody believed it.
As I recall almost everyone predicted Remain winning, though by increasingly narrow margins. But you may be right, to be honest I have tried to purge most of late June from my memory.

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 currently have no work to do. So I'm just twiddling my thumbs waiting for election news this evening.
I'd take a nap but I'm too stressed.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
~ma for your dad, msbelle, and sympathies for the morning.
I'm off social media for most of the day--as on other occasions, you guys are my information source. If it's bad news, here there'll be blunted shock and sympathy, and if it's good, there'll be unfettered celebration. No place I'd rather spend the day, no folks I'd rather be among.
Did I say? We dropped off our ballots last week, and avoided any lines.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I actually did not vote for my local open positions (city council members, city clerk, and city treasurer) because they were uncontested races and I don't know anything at all about the candidates, so whatevs.
Also didn't vote on whether adult films' condom requirements, because why the hell is that a Proposition and not some regulatory offices whaddayacallit?

I voted 2 weeks ago (thank goodness for WA being mail-in/drop off ballot), and am now mostly not looking at the news. I've got the SF Zoo livestream red panda cam open in another window for distraction.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Surgery ~ma for your father, msbelle! Sorry about the rotten start to your day, hope the rest is better!
Longest line I ever saw at my polling place. One of the attendants said there was a long line already half an hour before the polls opened. But they were efficient and it moved quickly. I wore my Avengers t-shirt and a blue jacket, because I don't own a pantsuit.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Trying to get motivated by my meeting with my boss tomorrow morning to check some things off the list. Bleh.
