I Voted!



In the words of Grouchie from his tour de force, The Pretend Life:

The world is big, scary place and only someone heavily medicated knows how he or she will feel at any given moment and even then maybe not. I did not even go trick or treating this year because the world is full of more tricks than treats. Mommy always went trick or treating until she got too old which was not very long ago. Today, I went to vote with Mommy. Mommy has not voted for anyone since Ann Richards so it was a very big deal and took about five minutes, which is a lot less time than say, it took Tim Robbins. She stole an I Voted sticker for me which is not quite true because I am not informed enough to vote. But I was there and that was something.

Hi Michelle(and Grouchie)!

Glad to hear you both got out and voted. Hope your week is going good.

Take care!

Did the border guards ask for Grouchie's passport? Surely the little green guy has one right?

Michelle at least you voted,it does not matter for who. At the very least, you at least participated.
I can't say the same for my other half and it is driving me up a fucking wall. It may not seem like much to very many, but it is the system we have in place. So to those of you that did not get out and vote,no more bitching and wining about the cost of things to come. Catch you later and be carefull of the loonies in Detroit who decide to fire their guns in the air, for what goes up, must come down.

I was so sad that they did not have any "I Voted" stickers at our precinct. We had to hand-color in our ballots as well. Illinois is so cheesy! xo
