Hubby went to the polling place at 6:20 this morning and he was number 60 in our precinct. I went about 11:50 am no lines, no problems, although The Little Guy was disappointed that they didn’t have a sample ballot that he could fill out while I was filling out the real ballot. There was someone electioneering in the parking lot for the democrats, but then he saw my McCain/Palin lipstick kiss button and said I could just throw the card he gave me away…
No exit polling.
Proud to Vote
I may be over-optimistic (I probably am) but this is my electoral map:
I was extremely optimistic and waayy wrong.
Tomorrow is Election Day. Now that the end is in sight here are some polls.
The poll above was supposed to include an option for “I’ve early/absentee voted”. Sorry about that.
I had this plant outside all summer and brought it in at the beginning of last month. There were some wonky looking leaves on it so I trimmed it back some by popping some of the leaves off. I also pulled a forest full of elm trees out the pot.
Now it’s blooming beautifully.
Except for Hawaii, Arizona, and Puerto Rico. They don’t go to Daylight Saving Time in the first place.

It’s a good time to change the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors too.
Enjoy that extra hour of sleep! :moon:
Where do Obama’s higher taxes hit?
$150,000? $200,000? $250,000?
And why $200,000 for an individual, but $250,000 for a couple? Where’s the fairness in that?
We had a little snow today. Freeze warning tonight.
We had to go purchase a new TV today too. About a week ago, suddenly the TV (a 7-year-old, 42 inch Sony rear projection set) went very red. The reset button and adjusting the set worked only so far. Then today, it went really red and there was no adjusting it at all. Here’s a picture of Megyn Kelly all pinkerized… Poor Megyn. I mean, I know it’s Breast Cancer Awareness month, but this just goes too far…
Poor Pink Megyn
Please contribute to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. My sister’s mother-in-law died as a result of her breast cancer last October.
So we went to Circuit City and purchased a 47 inch LG HD LCD to replace it. It’s very nice.
Trick-or-treating started off very slow yesterday. The hours for trick-or-treating were 1 – 5 pm. We didn’t see our first trick-or-treater until 1:52 pm. And it wasn’t one trick-or-treater, it was a crowd of about 15.
Lots of princesses and Batmen. Several werewolves with good masks. A very large gorilla showed up with two tiny princesses.
It was pretty steady until about 3:30 and it dropped off drastically with a slight flurry of trick-or-treaters around 4:40.
It was sunny, only about 50°F and quite windy bringing that temperature lower with wind chill. That may explain the lower turnout for trick-or-treating this year. For the past few years it’s been warmer – sixties – and sunny and we had steady trick-or-treaters during the full four hours.
Puppytini ™
she’s been chewing herself some (dry skin probably) so she’s had to have the ‘lampshade’ put back on. With it, she’s a perfect Puppytini ™ – well after I put the olive on a toothpick in “the glass”.
