Oh jeez, Tim! Lung-ma! (Not lunch, which is what I typed the first time.) (Or also lunch, why not?)

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.
I hope Tim's lung heals quickly. lots of ~ma to y'all.
I would have bailed on work if they had to check me to see if I had a partially collapsed lung, never mind if I had one.
Teppy, I hope he's feeling better soon, and you too.
I feel like today should be Friday. Can we get on that?
My husband and I were saying the same thing this morning. It feels like Friday. I don't even know why.
I found out that something like 22% of eligible voters in Somerville have already voted, either by 'early' or mail-in. ::waves tiny pompoms::
Woo hoo!
Argh, Steph! Yes, therapy, good.
I keep checking the ballot return statistics page and a quarter of registered voters in Washington have returned their ballots. Kitsap County is up to a third. Some of the smaller counties have hit 50%. A handful of boxes in Seattle have had to be emptied twice in one day because they've been full - each drop box holds 5000 ballots.
Good lord. Lung~ma for Tim.

I just checked the ballot tracker, and my ballot has been counted!
My mom told me that some ridiculous number like 40% had voted in her county - more than the usual turnout total! I don't know where she got that, though.
Teppy, I hope he's feeling better and the lung gets fixed. YIKES.
My youngest cheated on a math test. SIGH. We've been fighting this whole semester to try to catch up and then this. UGH.
I went and stood in line for early voting today. Realizing the wait on the 3rd day of early voting was about what I'd normally have expected on actual election day went a long way toward dispelling any annoyance I might otherwise have felt.
I didn't have the opportunity to vote Democrat down-ballot though. Our ballot machines require you to register a vote for unopposed candidates, who of course were all Republicans. And the only person opposing Tom Cotton in his senatorial race is a Libertarian, but I'd vote for Prince Mongo over him.
Lung~ma to Tim. Extra ~ma to all buffistas (and to esse! Hi there).
I'm back to school, so I'm skimming very much. Apologies.
