Did you get out and vote?

I did!

Randall and I have been voting absentee for a while, mostly because
our polling place isn't convenient, but also because we turn it into
an event. We sit down and go through the candidates and measures. Most
of the time we cancel each other's votes out, but it's sort of fun to
debate.

The one thing we haven't mastered with the absentee ballot is the
whole mailing it out early thing. This is fine except it means we have
to drop them off at a polling place. But I left work real late so
there was no way I was making it to the one near my house. I tried to
go to one near work, but it wasn't where the interweb said it would
be. I was about to get real discouraged when I remebered duh, city
hall (and more importantly the department of elections) was on my way
home. Ta da! Civic duty done!

Doing my civic duty

A while back I decided that I wanted to be a fulltime absentee voter.
Mostly because my voting station is even further up the hill and
totally out of the way. Unfortunately, I have yet to remember to fill
out my ballot in time to put it in the mail. This means I have to go
up the hill and out of my way to drop it off anyways. But before I can
do that, I have to fill it out. And so that's what I'm doing tonight.
Did you do your civic duty?

In other news, the weather today was frigging amazing. All my windows
are still open.
