So, I just got home from voting. I was frantic trying to make sure I left work early (for fuck's sake, the drive took forever!) to get home. Everything went wrong all at once and I had to do training in one city, drive to another to hear a customer vent, then do training in the office for the stupid sales reps. I don't mean stupid stupid.. I mean idiot stupid.
If you don't know, you are allowed to either come into work late or leave early to vote. It is the law. I was hoping my boss would give me a hard time so I could go HR on his ass. Twas not the case.
I didn't vote Obama, as I said before. And I voted NO ON 8 (and 4 and the animal initiative, the number I forgot). I pretty much voted NO on most of them.
I was anticipating long lines. I was in and out in 15 minutes. Very nice.
So, I hope you people voted and I hope you voted with your interests at heart, not with "Oh he's so cute" or "Oh, he's not a socialist" in mind.
On another note: I knew it. I called it. I blogged it. I knew turn out for this election would be stellar. I told people as far back as a year and a half ago that this election would be key. It would be one of magnitude. Young people, old people, all people would be out in droves to vote for this one. And I knew it. I said it. It gives me faith in the public. It makes me feel like the give a shit for once.
I'm going to the gym now, with my I VOTED sticker on my shirt. :-)
