Good afternoon all!
I managed to catch up on the weekend posts yesterday, and I fully intended to post something regarding Halloween, but I was dealing with two rather cranky children yesterday. The post-Halloween-sugar high-lack of sleep-too much excitement blahs were in full swing around here yesterday, and I was no better, due to a severe lack of sleep during my weekend.
This Halloween I wore probably my best costume ever. I truly wish I had a picture to post of it. My friend let me borrow this little blue dress, and I decided to turn it into a mature version of Alice in Wonderland. The dress was a simple light blue cotton affair, short flared skirt, very fitted bodice, and strapless. I added a white apron, black shoes, white thigh-highs, and put a black ribbon in my hair, and I was set. My own natural long blonde hair worked in my favor. A simple deal, but I got tons of compliments on it.
I too voted today! For the first time ever! I'm only 23, remember, so that's not as bad as it might sound. I've only missed one presidental election since I became legal. The polls weren't too crowded when I went...I had to wait about five minutes, that was it.
I will be SO glad when all this is over. I was getting sick to death of the TV ads and radio bits. The campaign really got vicious near the end. And I second what Jose said about those irritating phone messages. As one who is still in the job hunting process, each time I hear I have voice mail, I get excited. But yesterday I checked the message only to hear "Hi, this is Bill Clinton." I somehow didn't think he was calling to offer me a job...
