I stood in line for an hour and a half, and I listened to the woman behind me yammer about Jesus, and I made faces at the cute little girl the lady in front of me was holding. And then I voted!
While I was in the polling place, I was pleased to see a poll worker calling the county office to help a woman whose name wasn't on the roll, and that a woman who'd just moved was just handed an update form with her ballot instead of given grief.
And then I went to Target and bought apple pie to eat while I freak out at CNN tonight (apparently a lot of people had the same idea, as I couldn't find fresh apple pie and all the good frozen ones were gone, too, but I got pie!), and was reminded by the cashier to stop at the in-store Starbucks for my free coffee.
I voted! Whee!
Now I'll be freaking out until they call this thing.
Edit: I just called my dad to make sure he'd voted and he said, "I'm sure I will eventually." He...does realize the polling place closes in less than three hours, yes?
