Election Day

Chilling out, looking for a sarcastic passage I can use at work for something. Amazing how hard it is to find sarcasm when you’re looking for it. Finally got out Catch 22.

A. is glued to the tv (we broke for an hour to watch House). He reports occasionally. He, being the person he is, wants to jump and shout and cheer about Democrats winning seats, but he remembers in the 2000 election how he was playing basketball around 7:30 and was leaping about crowing about a Democrat win then.

I’m not ready to feel relief yet. There’s many a slip between the cup and the lip. But the last few years have been very scary, and it would be nice to be able to hope that checks and balances might be coming back a bit.

The Governor’s race in Minnesota is coming to a major tie… unfortunately the Rep. is ahead by a few right now, say a prayer, don’t think we can survive another four years under Pawlenty.
