This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is awesome. [edit: Sophia. Not being stuck, of course, but the reason for it.]

Plus as somebody just reminded me, they automatically opened the curtain behind you when the vote was registered and the tumblers reset. A very dramatic flourish.

I feel like my machines in PA did that, but NY didn't, or vice versa? Definitely in one of them, you had to push your way through curtain and I found it very disconcerting.

Left work early, got to my polling place at 5ish, and there was no line! Like three people in the process of voting. Scanning the check-in sheets it really looks like everyone either voted early or this morning. (I refuse to say "early voted.)

Also, even though the polls showed it being close in New Hampshire it really looks like HRC has a significant lead there. Which would be great for the Senate race.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Also, Ohio still looks kind of encouraging for the Dems.

When I checked at 5:00, I was shocked that HRC had a lead, no matter how small.

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

Surgery is complete. I have not been out yet. I am at counseling with Mac now ( he is in) and I hope he will go to the hospital with me after this. He would not come to dinner with the grandparents last night. I don't know if he does it get it or does not care that surgery is a big deal and seeing people when dying is a possibility is kinda a good thing to do.

Skipping to the end to report my polling place has been busy all day, and the tacos I just ate on my break were fab. Now back to it; we're not closing until 8.

Wish me stamina!

Good surgery vibes, msbelle.
