Went online today to get my absentee app filled out and sent it. Perused the sample ballot while I was there and holy cow is there some crazy stuff to vote on in my little corner of the world. I’m still registered to vote at home, mostly because I move around Chicago too much to bother and also because it’s more fun to participate when I know the people and by know I mean went to grade school with their kids. Yep, formerly know as Luke’s mom is running against a 15 year incumbent. As I was explaining that usually happens when someone’s pissed off enough to get on the ballot. And get this crazy, I’ll be voting on a referendum for carry concealed weapons in the county!! Now I have no clue which way this is going to go but for my money, I know people at home and the obscene amounts they drink. So no, I will not be voting yea. This isn’t Texas, or Sparta. And to cap it all I became a supporter on Facebook of my favorite politician…the Double D. Who? Assistant Senate Majority Leader Dick Durbin baby. Love this guy. You might have seen him introducing Barack Obama at the Democratic National convention. He’s one of the best, really. Heart him.
Moral of the story, forget Diddy, I’ll come after you if you don’t vote, Angie.
