Nice, Theo!

What is even happening?
Yes, Massachusetts early voting is from Saturday, October 17, 2020 through Friday, October 30th.
I requested a mail-in ballot for the presidential election, when I voted early in-person for the MA state primary. I've already filled out my ballot. I'm going to drop it off in person during the first week of early voting.
Our town's hours are kind of erratic, and that first day, early voting doesn't start until 2:00pm, so whether I vote on that day or wait until Sunday or Monday, depends on the lines.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm about to go put my ballot in a legit drop box!

That's my fail safe, Jesse.
I don't know why, but I feel better handing it to a person than putting it in the drop box (we only have one, and it is at town hall, so I know it is legit).
Basically, everything is making me nervous, and not in my "I have an anxiety disorder way," just in a "look at all this" way.

Yeah, I'm glad my polling place is City Hall. I haven't actually checked, but I assume there's a drop box there

Thanks, Todson. Sorry for all the moving rigamarole.
We dropped off our ballots to the Fairfax County Govt. Office a couple of weeks ago, and we researched and confirmed affirmative receipt.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Today was my telework day. Going back to the lab tomorrow is going to feel a little weird.

Sweet Christmas! The PA system outside on our block was playing "Jingle Bell Rock" just now. We're more than six weeks out from December 25; wait until Halloween is over, folks!
I got my blood donor ID number and found out that I'm type O negative. Which is good for any people who need transfusions when trapped or isolated with me in a post-Apocalyptic setting, I guess. I don't plan on donating often if I can help it, what with the 3-month chastity blood ban.

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.
(checks mailbox, no ballot yet) (sighs) We're probably going to drive the completed ballots to the elections offices in Port Orchard, mostly as an excuse to take the Mini out for a long drive, but Jim's not comfortable using the dropbox near the school admin building, as it's not in the building.
Hec, your comments about San Francisco echoes what Ken said last week - in his building, they're offering a month and a half free rent and the prices are lower than they were when we lived there six years ago, and the building is still a quarter empty.
