OK, they nailed it, People can stop naming that particular title.
Aww, someone brought in "don't forget to vote" doughnuts. Yay!
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Working is hard. Nothing else I can do and nothing to find out yet, and still.

People magazine definitely got it right.
The university is closed again today because we're still on a boil water advisory since yesterday because of a water main break, so I'm "working" from home, which means keeping one eye on my email and the other on Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj. Also, many snack breaks.
Instead of watching election returns, I'm going to see the Psychedelic Furs at a local club tonight. When I accepted the invitation from a friend months ago, I didn't make the connection that it would be election night, but now I'm thinking that this is the best way to deal with my 2016 trauma and 2018 anxiety. I hope and expect that lots of my friends will be texting and FB messaging me throughout the night, however. And since I can't drink the water, it's a perfect excuse to drink ONLY ALCOHOL.

Oh, wow, amyth, that sounds so fun! Um, the Furs, not the boil water advisory.

One of my coworkers will be at that concert, amyth.
I'll be watching the results at home. This process will probably involve booze.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I saw the Psychedelic Furs live some years ago when they were touring with the B-52s and the Go-Gos. They suffered a little from the comparison, but probably the best night of live music I've ever experienced. And I saw Chuck Berry in concert.

Awesome! That gives me inspiration to stay out later than I normally would on a work night.

Pfft. That'd be the shortest ballot I ever did in California.
I want Jon B. to know that Ranked Voting was causing all kinds of havoc at the poll this morning.
