| November 3, 2004 I hope everyone voted. It's important. I voted yesterday morning. There is something about actually voting on Election Day that gives me a bit of a thrill. I'm all for early voting if you need it, but I wouldn't vote early just to get it out of the way. I watched the election results come in at Jenne's house. We drank some wine and watched the US fill up with red states. Yes, I am quite pleased with the outcome of this election. John Kerry scares the living shit out of me. And the fact that he didn't seem to have any sort of plan caused me a bit of angst. CBS showed the results of an exit poll that revealed a full 37% of voters who voted for Kerry only voted for him because he wasn't Bush. It made me giggle a little bit. That's a small slap in the kisser. Neiman's called today and I passed the drug test. No, I wasn't worried. Since they aren't looking for alcohol or nicotine, there wasn't anything else they would have found. I don't even eat poppy seeds. Although, as I recall, that's a rumor that they show up as heroin. According the snopes.com, it is true that poppy seeds can show up as opiates. I prefer sesame seeds on my bagels, so I'm not worried about it. They also offered me $19.50 an hour. WooHoo. Full time is 30 hours a week. On the whole, I'm pleased. It's not what I expected to be doing at this point in my life, but hey, isn't that half the fun of living? Just think about the free stuff. Remember the free stuff. Speaking of, my Mom has already starting schilling for goods. I'm not kidding. I don't start for another week and half and she's lobbying for eye shadows. <shaking head> There was something else I was going to address today and I can't remember what it was. It doesn't help that I'm on the phone with SBC trying to get Matt M's service put in my name. Yes, good readers, that means I am about to inherit the SEX-6911 phone number. I haven't been able to figure out how to reset the outgoing message on my answering machine, so I might not ever get any messages. I actually didn't plan on giving out the number. But it is handy to have a local phone for those during the day calls that chew up your cell minutes. This is the worst hold music ever. It's like musak jazz. I hate both of those separately. As soon as I'm done here, I think it will be time to retire to my couch with a mug of hot chocolate. It's freakin' cold here. I wish I had a fire place. Maybe someday. I thought about a chimenia for the patio, but that doe me no good in the house. |
