yet another anti-propagandist sends me a text message.

once upon a time, i was a political beat reporter. i don’t know how i survived. politics annoys me. this is probably why the snark overflows when i’m in a political setting.

i’ve drawn up my list. i dunno if i will go through with the vote. in a little over five hours, the polls will open. we’ll see if i withstand the queue to actually cast my shortlist.

i haven’t worked this weekend. i edited something for someone, just now, but i haven’t done any of the work i pledged to do. i transcribed for 15 minutes yesterday, when i have hours to go yet.

so tomorrow, or rather later today, i need to do the vote thing and then work. god help me.

at least the propagandists will lay off now.

it took 3hrs, several songs, holding the umbrella against sun and rain, fighting vs “singiteros/as,” elbowing my way past a would-be stampede, and at one point kneeling at the gym staring at the tattered ceiling.

yeep.

but I voted.

now to get rid of that primitive inkstain.
