Tuesday

I voted.

If you're eligible, I hope you did, too.

Paper ballots here. Color in the circles with a marker. Traceability is Good.

I voted around 1130 or so, and was number 184. The last general election, iirc, I voted in the late afternoon, and fell in the 360s. I hope we have record turnout for a primary, and that early/absentee voters swell the numbers.

Time marches on

Received a contract today as an email attachment. Gee.

I do need to print out and sign four copies. Legal size paper always complicates everything--what is the purpose of the size difference? I'm sure it's a reason grounded in tradition and the fact that documents would probably be twice as long if they didn't make the paper longer, but still.

Electronic signatures would be nice at a time like this.

Enough already

Another pelting of snow expected. I thought most of it would have fallen by now, but it's apparently going to come in two waves. The first wave is past, and we have only a couple of inches to show for it. The second wave, which could bring snow totals in my area to a foot or more, will come through tomorrow. Could snow through the evening, which means that I may be shoveling Thursday morning.

I would laugh if it missed us completely, or only dumped a couple of inches. I mean, they're talking 20 inches in Milwaukee. They are worked up over this thing.

Took what I'd written so far and trimmed and hacked as I watched the primary results. Then managed to doze off for an hour or two. Woke up in time to watch Obama's speech in Chicago. "We are who we've been waiting for." Hope I got that right. Damn, it's nice to listen to someone who knows how to speak.
