Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm planning on early voting in person. I'll go at like 10 AM on a weekday, to try to avoid the times when most people will be going before or after work.

Thrive to spite them

apparently Graham is asking for help and money because of how close the race is in SC. I am trying to be optimistic that he can lose but right now this is more a race Graham is working to win rather than one where the election is more a formality.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

It's postal voting for everyone in Washington; we'll walk our ballots up to the secure dropbox at the school district administration building. Ballots will probably go out on the 14th (are required to be mailed by the 16th), and they're actively telling people "If you are using USPS, get your ballot into the system by the 27th: we'll pick up at the secure dropboxes until 8 pm on Election Day."

Folks from the county elections division will be at the library on October 29th with a secure dropbox, voter registration forms and ballots, plus the accessible voting setup - I might call and see if they need help, I've worked as an elections judge before.

Also stickers. This year of all years, damn it, I want that sticker.

CA is mailing stickers with the ballots! It's very exciting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We didn't have stickers on Primary Day, sad.

So I think it's Jacob H's fault that I got this email, but Raul Grijalva's logo is very cute. [link]

Super Tuesday was before we sheltered at home.

That seems weird. This has been a long ass year.

I actually meant our local primary in September, but yes -- I had this conversation recently like, "We just went in to vote in the presidential primary?? Like it was nothing?? Yes, it was March 3."

Oh, I wasn't really commenting on your statement so much as it reminded me that I did vote in person once this year and how strange that seems.

I just remembered that I had a secret plan to make tuna salad to eat on my weaksauce grocery store bagels instead of the truly terrible Panera cream cheese. This is still a good plan! Lunch is saved!

Is everything not a direct response to me???!?!?!?
