Election Day! Super Tuesday!

I had a crummy day at work, but I had voting to look forward to!

I got to the polling place around 2:15pm and, wow, was it different to what I’m used to! Instead of checking-in, having my name crossed-off, getting my long ballot, slipping it into the ink/punch machine, it was all tablet computers and stuff. One thing I didn’t care for was the fact that when I got to the bit where I voted for my Democrat candidate, all of the candidates, even those who dropped out a while ago were still on the list (Booker?). I really had to scroll through to find my person. I wonder how many folks had issues with finding theirs?

Other than that, it was pretty smooth sailing. The polling place was crowded (YAY!), but moving smoothly. I really hope we have a great turn out and good people score the delegates!!

My folks were in town this past weekend and actually told me ahead of time! I took a half days vacation on Friday as I had an appointment with Gotham’s new vet at 10:30am, so I told my dad I could hang out with him if he was around while my mom was busy. We had a really fun time and then I took him to dinner at a little Mexican stand I love. He said he enjoyed it, which makes me happy.

On Saturday, Before I met up with both of them, I splurged and bought a Roomba. Not the really fancy one that emptied itself, but the model under it. OMG! I love my Roomba!! No more cat litter tracked out of the bathroom! Plus, it’s mesmerizing to watch. I tried scheduling it to clean while I’m at work, but it got stuck and ran its battery down. It doesn’t seem to do that if I’m here watching it, and trust me, if I’m here and it’s running, I’m probably watching it, lol! I can’t help it! Gotham doesn’t know what to make of it yet, so he will sit with me and watch it. We’re weirdos! It will probably stop being interesting in a few days, but for now, it’s cool!

Work was nothing but challenges today, but I made it through okay. Time for dinner, maybe an audio book and then some Roomba watching....
