Work today is a nibbled to death by very large ducks sort of day. And the new boss I report to starts next week. I'm know that my current boss (who New!Boss will report to) is going to tell her to leave me alone for the next few months of deadline hell and concentrate on the CPH side of the team, but I'm still a little anxious.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Cereal: and I think I need to nope the hell out of Twitter and give up on FB until after Tuesday. It's just making me twitchy and worried.

Punishingly Intricate
So, I just signed up to be a poll greeter on election day (early morning shift) and now I'm nervous. Tell me I'm not going to be shot by a Trump supporter.
My brother is a long-time resident of your county, and a very vocal Democrat, and he feels pretty confident that things will be pretty civilized there on election day. Can't speak for the rest of NC, though.

Our wings are not tired.
Now I want the Jamaican Rum Cake my friend's mom used to make every year. Stuff weighed a ton and was so rich. I need to ask him to get her recipe. They moved back to Jamaica so I won't be having any this year.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
This is a good online place to be right now. Otherwise I'm just going to keep the Rachel Bloom vid (thanks for linking, Dana) on loop till the 10th, that okay with everybody?
msbelle, sending lots of ~ma to your dad.

I knew I forgot to respond to something! You will not be shot by a Trump supporter, Glam. I feel certain that they are not early to rise, early to the polls people, for one thing.
And good for you engaging with the community in such a civic-minded way!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
We're car-shopping too right now, and have more or less decided that what we really want is another red Subaru Forester. (I kept looking for other biggish family cars and every one that I liked, the thing I liked about it was how much like our old Subaru it was!) They're slightly more expensive than a Toyota or Honda would be, but I know from experience that they last just this side of forever and they are RIDONKULOUSLY safe.

We found ours by using TrueCar. SUPER helpful with prices and such.

Coding and Sleeping
I really like AutoTrader for looking at used cars. I just set my filters pretty broad and look over a whole bunch of cars just to get an idea of the current market, then I can cherry pick the ones that look like good deals.
