vote...

i voted yesterday by absentee ballot. i'm sad to say it was the first time i've voted in eight years. i unfortunately missed the last one as i was out o' town, and out of pure laziness i didn't bother to get my absentee paperwork in.

could i possibly be responsible for the last four years of george bush? what an awful thought.

anyway, i was very excited to cast my ballot. i walked through driving rain, lightning and thunder to the mailbox on 7th avenue and 34th. on the way there i stepped in a massive puddle. i'll get over it though. at least i'm allowed to vote.

i was really surprised that the act of voting made me feel like i was doing something positive. i hope i'll never miss another election.
