The Boy sounds wonderful, Cass.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Perfect, Cass. I hope renewing rest happened.
Dinner last night was piccata snapper over spiraled butternut squash and was super yummy. The only way I can keep DH on a diet is to make sure we eat 3 meals a day at home. No eating out and no snack food is key here. He can polish off large bags of chips or whole pizzas if he gets hungry. Trying to break the don't eat all day long and make up for it and then some late at night. One week in and I am down 6 lbs and him double that. (He drops absurdly fast, probably because of his overall size) Oatmeal for breakfast, salads for lunch, tasty dinner. No take out or junk. Fortunately I like to cook! And I don't care if he doesn't get to the dishes immediately. (except oatmeal bowls because that shit turns to concrete if left a few minutes)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow!

First weeks are often dramatic. But I am encouraged because we are eating three very nice meals a day without caring about calorie count. No junk and high fiber/protein/MUFA, but not starving ourselves at all. I'm still drinking my wine, because really have you seen this world we live in?

In Arkansas only about 31% of registered voters have already voted at last count, but that's a percent shy of double the amount in 2016. Alas, it's holding to our average of about 60% Republican. Trump and Cotton are unassailable here, though I'll feel some consolation if there are significant numbers of Republicans who vote against the former in protest.

In my county 48% of registered voters have voted. I know they are messing with people here and there, like Miami holding off till last moment sending ballots out. (I should stop looking at this stuff!)

My ballot has been accepted. That really is comforting

I checked my status on the county website - "Voter Status: You voted at an Early Voting Location."
Yes I did.

My town website doesn't say how many people have early voted so far.

Yeah, I love that we can check it online. Ohio sucks because we only have one dropbox location per county, at the BOE, and since early voting is also happening at the BOE, you can imagine the potential clusterfuck just dealing with all the cars. But we dropped our ballots off Sunday, and the BOE had that shit managed like pros. The dropbox was in a different parking lot than the lot for early voting, and cars were herded through a marked lane, and volunteers came to our cars, took our ballots, and put them in a box while we watched. It look like 3 minutes, tops. Plus they gave us stickers!
