Interview at noon today.
I feel like at any point something terrible is going to happen and the universe will be like "HAHA psyche!! Not gonna happen." Because nothing ever really goes right for me... so this must be some kind of joke...
YAAAAAY

No... don't think like that lol. The power of positive thinking. This is your time :)

It's election day... which means this is almost all over.

it also means it's movie day here because I can't stand another political commercial after last night lol so I'm watching NATIONAL LAMPOONS CHRISTMAS VACATION. If that movie doesn't make you happy then... there is something wrong with you (LOL not really but I couldn't think of anything clever to say lol)
We have to leave the radio on at work.. and oh god. It's not even presidential election commercials. It's city council and senators and people who don't even have dirty secrets interesting enough to make a commercial!

"_______ got in trouble for plagiarism at her university!"
" _______ has unpaid parking tickets!"
" _________ does not walk her dog on a leash!"

..seriously guys?

"Don't vote for THAT guy... He's satans brother. I know that because I heard it from a guy who heard it from a guy"

"and he kicks kittens for fun" lol that one made Brian almost spit his wine :rofl1:

I don't even get the though process in these commercials.

I'm soooooooo glad those political commercials are behind us. And the phone calls! Holy moly! It's a good thing I have caller ID and I turn off my ringer on the land line phone. I only have that phone to absorb all the telemarketers and now, political campaign nonsense. :rolleyes: Some of them would leave a looooooooooooooooooooooooong message. And my phone won't let me delete it until it's finished! So, I set the phone down and dry a few dishes, then delete it. It's ridiculous. Does this stuff really work on people? I guess it must or they wouldn't keep doing it.

That sounded like more of a rant than good news. But it is good news because it's over. I just know that most of what I voted for won't be happening because of the way this state is. (or the west side of the state anyhow....where all the population is.) LOL.

Yoko, that sounds insane! Wow.

I voted!!

And for those who it means anything to (aka: people in MN) I voted NO...TWICE!!!

Also, I love that all of the feeds from my MN friends are about whether they voted no or yes, not anything to do with presidential candidates :lol-sign:

No to amending the MN constitution to say that marriage can only be one man one woman.

And no to requiring voter ID at the polls.

The Iams Dog Breed Selector says that I am a perfect match for a Belgian Malinois, so I am going to see about getting one of those :rofl1::rofl1:

And yes, I'm taking dog breed selector quizzes on my day off. Don't judge.

So far lots of ACDs, BCs, and tons and tons of sporting breeds. :p
