Bad Voter

I didn't get to vote yesterday b/c I had totally forgotten to update my voter registration card with my new address. Dammit! And apparently the voters that did bother to turn out voted the State of Texas into more debt, debt, debt and to totally disregard the U.S. Constitution on another issue. I've had it with this state, country, government!!! I guess I could've driven all the way to my former precinct location in rush hour traffic to vote but it wouldn't have made a damn bit of difference anyway. I hate to think that way, but in this particular election it was true.

My 91-year old grandfather is in the hospital as of yesterday b/c he is a stubborn old man and I'm pissed off about that, too. But, as with the voters, what can you do?

Anyway, it was wonderful to not have to rush off to the old Job #2 last night. I can't even say how great it was to leisurely head on home, chill out at the house, do laundry, make a sandwich, watch GP (Guilty Pleasure) tv with S. And I worked 6 hours on Monday at the new Job #2 so I "double-dipped", earning 2 salaries in 1 day at the same time. (I have comp time off from Job #1 that made that possible.) That is the additional perk of the new Job #2 that I didn't even realize! As an added bonus, I also met Mudflap and S for lunch since we were all near each other!

Last week and weekend were so incredibly busy and this week and weekend prove to be more of the same. I can't even get into it right now, so I won't.

I could not vote too. I never thought to re register now that I am in San Antonio. Well since my vote probably cancelled out yours we are still at net zero.

But it is good to see you back and typing away again after Halloween Horror Week. Thank goodness you're still alive and the baddies didn't get you altogether!! You know I can't go more than 2 days without reading your eloquence and veritable dropping of the people's elbow, on blogger!!!!
