The Fourth of November, catchy ain't it?


Yup, I voted this morning. It is my first Presidential vote, I wasn't peeing my pants in anticipation, however I do enjoy checking the race now and again during my movie marathon. Yes, it is a very important election, I will be anxious to see what will happen when the candidate I didn't vote for win, if he does. Maybe they'll change my views. But I will not, unlike many others in this country, be absolutely outraged if I don't get who I really didn't want in the office in the first place. Neither of them are absolutely fantastic, but it's what we have to work with, maybe I should have voted Green. Ha ha, I think they were both women, scary stuff...

Anyway, back to my first presidential vote, I had no idea I would wait as long as I did. The last vote I did cast I was in and out quicker than fast food, this time, a little longer, to the tune of going to Olive Garden on 'friday date night' in St. George, waiting for a table AND possibly ordering, yup, about that long.

All in all it wasn't bad in line, someone made a comment about being in the right line and I responded with a cafeteria quip (we were in a middle school). It was a nice chuckle had by all involved that ended and was never brought to life again, so then it got boring and I proceeded to do what I always do in public places, people watch, it was enjoyable. I learned that Fiji is the quintessential paradise/beach spot, even though the couple only made day trips there, they were on a cruise. When I go, I'm doing it full force, no cruise ship involved during my awesome vaca.
