Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh I have no delusions about where I will be. Every election in memory I have planted myself in front of the tv and computer compulsively watching. I didn't think I could possibly have been more devastated than I was after the Bush elections, and then there was 2016. I still have not recovered, but I won't be able to sleep or focus on anything else. So I will watch. Toes and fingers have blue nails, and I have my menu together.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I hope to spend the evening watching DVDs and hoping for the best. Time enough to face reality on Wednesday.

However, here's a little ray of sunshine.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

There are returns watching parties in town I was thinking about going to, but my brother and his girlfriend are visiting so we will probably be out bonding and catching up.

We'll probably watch something off the DVR and check out the returns between episodes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I've told some of my coworkers that I'll probably be hiding in my hotel room rather than attending any watch parties.

I can be available for chatting or texting on non-political matters. Like whether you've seen Venom or not. (I know you haven't had a chance yet. But I can amuse you with tales of large parts of fandom discovering tentacle fic.)

Thanks. I may take you up on that.

I'm on call, so I can't turtle the way I'd like to.

Oh, it sure is great when the HR person teases a "big change" to be discussed at the end of the 2019 benefits presentation. We're probably moving to husband's benefits anyway, but WTF.

Oh, shit, it's going to be vacation.

Ugh, Dana.
