Tuesday is election day. Please take the time to vote. I have been blessed by the fact that my boss ran unopposed. We were very lucky. I did not have to pass out a nail file or sell $100 dinner tickets. (photo from stella marrs)

I wrote political copy for three congressional campaigns. *thankless job* Which is why I am now studying to be a paralegal. I am SO glad you didn't have to sweat this one, sweety. And dh and I mailed our ballots a week ago. ♥

I am glad that we did not have to sweat this one. Elections are so stressful and expensive.
I'm lucky as I can vote across the street from my apartment (on my way to get my double mocha and croissant!) Thanks for the reminder!
I'm voting tonight after a break in noveling. Although now I'm so cranky. I was just going to vote for Bloomberg, the first Republican I'd ever voted for in my life, but last night in the middle of my novel, Mayor Mike sent a canvasser around to my door, who wasted my time, after I'd told him I was voting for Mike, asking me if everyone else in the apartment building was voting for him too. I was like, how the hell should I know? Mike has had people call our house; he has had people leave flyers on our door; he has sent us mail. This morning, he had cars drive by us on the way to work. Now I am not in the mood to vote for Mike at all. He has a 30+ point lead. He is like a boyfriend who keeps asking you over and over, "Do you love me?" The canvasser last night asked me, "Is there anything about the Mayor's performance you have any concerns or questions about?" And I said, "Yeah, I wish he wasn't spending so much money on his campaign." "It's all his own money, you know," said the guy. "Yeah," I said, pointedly, "I know." At this point, maybe I will vote for Freddy after all.
Tess: A double mocha sounds so good.
Can I add your blog to my links?
I cringed and laughed at the post about the single's event. It really is always the damaged creepy ones that manage to call or email.
He should have a warning label on his forehead.
Tbone: Now that is what I would call an excellent(yet annoying) campaign. Did the campaign get dirty at all?
Only if you count the ad that Fernando Ferrer ran that showed Mike Bloomberg sitting in George Bush's lap as they rode a pony. Many people have said that the ad makes it look like Mike is touching Dubya in a more than friendly way. Having seen the ad, I agree. That was really yucky.
Here's the Wonkette piece about it.

Oh, I would be so flattered (added yours as well -- you have such brilliant taste).
