Finally!
We vote today. I have our sample ballots filled out and ready to go. I have read over all our local & state measures and read the resumes of all the politicos angling for my vote and I hope I have chosen wisely and well. Time will tell I suppose. My husband and I have a tradition where we always go together and vote. It actually started out as a way to force him to do his civic duty - he never really bothered with it, but it is important to me. So now I make sure he goes. He can't not do it if I am there handing him his sample ballot lol.
I will be glad when the sound and fury are over. I am beyond sick and tired of turning on the tv and seeing nothing but mudslinging and venom. I am WAY beyond sick of my phone ringing off the hook with pre-recorded political messages. I do not appreciate that nor do I appreciate the texts and calls to my cell phone either. The worst was from the Republican Party. WTF are they doing with my number??? I am a registered Democrat and have been since I was 18. I don't like to be spammed within and inch of my life by ANYONE. I don't care what their political affiliation, just back off.
As I said it will be a relief to have it done and over. I only hope that whoever takes over the reins will make an effort to fix whats broken...I have lost faith and confidence in my country and what it represents. I know I am not alone and that scares me. So please, if you are an American and registered to vote PLEASE DO SO. Something must be done and it needs to happen soon.
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!
Puurrs to all,
