The early bird

I voted early today.

What a concept.

Now I'd like to watch the Super Bowl early, have Scout ditch her training wheels early, get my book published early.

    I voted in the mail-in Oregon election. Worst idea ever. No booth, no curtain, no drama…and still no more participation than when we used to go to the polls. But now that I’ve voted, I turn on the news and want to yell, “Enough already, can we move on, I’ve already voted!”
    Do you feel that way?

    Now, Eileen, I’m as narcissistic as the next guy. For instance, I struggle mightily to deal with the cognitive dissonance generated when I go to drop somebody off at the airport.
    I’m arriving at the airport, but I have to follow the signs toward “Departures.”
    It’s agony.
    But no, I’m still curious to see how my fellow Americans in other states are going to vote.
    Real curious.

    I’m curious too, but I just pine for the days when we all voted on the same day, removing the prolonged agony of waiting.

    I’d like my daughter to be potty-trained early. 😉
