move out and draw fire

No way in hell this trio of New Mexicans was going to order the enchiladas at a spendy MD restaurant, we know it'd not compare to our comfort food favorite hole in the walls at quarter the cost in the hometown.

They would be rolled anyway.

Layoffs. The wife of my mentor is getting laid off in December from a very large company based in Rochester that failed to believe digital photography would be a thing. They let her know early as she's Mahogany Row. She already kind of knew, so she's been looking for a new job for like 2 years, but it turns out no one hires female executives.

Packers done! I am doing the dance of them being done! Still have to work, but the packers are done!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hurray, Dana!

::waves at Vonnie:: I will just offer one anti-rec: do NOT give into convenience and go to Mulate's across the street from the Convention Center. It is nast.

Wait, am I supposed to know who Volans is?

As long as you're healthy and traditionally employed, the system here works great!

Hahahah. Yes. "As long as you don't need our system, the system works!"

And I'm definitely looking into immigration if Trump wins. For serious.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

He's not going to win.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Hee! Thanks, smonster. Will stay away accordingly.

food at the convention center is also pretty darn good, considering.

I saw a bunch of stalls that looked like a decent sized food court on the way in. Might try that since I only have an hour for lunch.

3 hours into the symposium and I am already squirming. I paid for the sessions and everything, so I shouldn't shove off and play hooky / go off to sightsee, right? Sliiigh.

I'm clinging to polls and such. Feeling much less worried about it than I was even a few weeks ago...but also a tiny bit worried that the certainty won't get the vote out and then it'll be scary?

In other news, I once again want to scream at the system we are using. Wtf who planned that training can ONLY be done in IE??

(Ah, and just saw beep me--thanks Volans!)

You should hear the discussions happening in the government around this. No one thinks they can work for him, but at the same time we all swore an oath to protect the Constitution.

And then there are the few deplorables who want to have their salary and benefits paid for by the government but don't want to pay taxes, or who think it's OK to support a government by and for just some of the people.

Woohoo! May your people be more sensible than the British.
