Good morning, all! I forget to take the muscle relaxer and my left shuld kept me up far too much last night. So, I slept very poorly and arose at 5:00am to vote at 6. I got to the polls around 5:45 and was home by 6:15. It was a whole new voting machine process, but I think I did it correctly. O'm debating going backto bed until 8 or stayng up. I have to be at City Center by 10:30 to help Joshie with a problem.

So, BK, I didn't see voting on your agenda for today.

I did get a text from Jonathan and I hope to meet him later today. I'm currently thinking I will come home from City Center and nap for acouple of hours, meet Jonathan, maybe, fordinner - I owe him one, and cme home for the election news.

I also got an email from the Man from Philadelphia about postponing Friday's meeting. This is fine with me, but it's hell scheduling all of the divas with whom I work!

I hate the new voting process. I assume they spent millions of dollars on the procedures but it still sucks. I can't believe with the technology available now we have to mark a paper ballot with a f*****g pen and put it in a scanner. There are better, easier and more secure ways to do this.

Luckily I voted a couple of weeks ago and mailed by ballot in.  Although the presdiential races may take awhile to sort out, at least all of the local elections will finally be through.

It's hot again in sunny Southern California.

What happened to fall ?

Good morning, all.

TOD: The insurance company I work at has electronic banners flashing about the dangers of texting and walking. Apparently it causes accidents 63% of the time because people get so involved in texting that they wander way off course. Imagine how much worse that is when you're behind the wheel of a car. I'm glad at least my city has outlawed texting while driving. Other cities in Texas haven't, which makes me not want to drive in them.

I dropped my mail in ballot last night at the 24 hour drop box.

I'm done.   Now it's just a wait, who knows how long this one will take to decide.

Must get ready for work.

Think I might stay home tonight, or maybe go to a friends house to watch the results.

Although I have been warned, much yelling will be directed at the TV.

Good morning, all.

Posting from New Milford Volkswagen which is, literally, across the road from the cows.  Look it up if you don't believe me.  I am happy to report that the cows are home.

Tuesday morning greetings!  Today is the grantwriters' lunch meeting in Dayton and I'm going to vote before heading north.  After the meeting I'm meeting my friend Sue for coffee, so I'll be E & T most of the day.

My day has changed. Joshie just canceled our date to look at the scores for the Encores! gala. So, I'm here. I wish I hadn't had all that coffee. I'd go back to bed.

DR Vixmom, glad you got gas times two. That must be a relief.  I don't know why they wouldn't have a way to tell people that it was cash only. I would be unhappy to wait an hour and then get turned away. They could put signs or something or have a bullhorn.

Well, voting was easy-peasy in our corner of Ohio.  Got in line at 9:20 and home by 9:40 for a bit more coffee.

TOD:

When I lived in Calabasas, I was was coming out of my parking lot, and a guy coming into the lot was talking on his cell phone, looking in the opposite direction.  Despite my honking, he hit my car.  Luckily, there was no damage.

"So, what's the problem?" was the schmuck's response.

I DID HAVE A NEW COSTUME for last night.  It is gray pants with a matching SHORT jacket with a peplum....a shirt with Louis IV sleeves, my white tights (that sounds like a song from THE MUSIC MAN), and a nice Pilgrim collar that ties in the front.  Of course as first I didn't see it, and put on my blue costume....then I looked again and there was the other one.

It is very nice, perhaps I shall get a photo tonight....  Of course the pants were even BIGGER than the blue ones.  They must be about size 50.  I had to hold them up or they would be on the floor.  I pinned them to my t-shirt, but that didn't feel too secure.  So I found a belt and cinched them....they seems to work....so there you are!!!
