judecorpWow, the election is, like, tomorrow and stuff. Which means I have to get up early to vote. Pesky job, making me, you know, work all day. Otherwise I could loiter around my polling place and bother people. That would be kind of fun.
I'm voting Green this year for president. I doubt my vote even counts here in Massachusetts, since 877298710879879 people will be voting for Kerry. And 2 people will be voting for Bush. And then someone will go egg their houses or something. (Okay, that's not true. There will be more than 2. And no eggs.) It's kind of nice being able to vote for a candidate I actually like, even if he doesn't stand a chance in hell of ever being president. Although part of me wishes I kept my Ohio info so I could absentee vote for Kerry over there. Aah well.
I'm really scared to watch the election results. I always get goofy and anxious when I watch the reports come in from the states, but I'm extra nervous this year. I'm nervous about the result of the election, but also the consequences of the result. I've imagined all sorts of crazy scenarios in my head.
Really, though, I just want a country I can be proud of, in a world that doesn't suck. Oh, and I want my marriage recognized through the Full Faith and Credit Clause like it's supposed to. Is that too much to ask?
