Everything about this election is going to be painful, isn't it?
So I go to the polls at 6:55am thinking I'll outsmart the hordes. The line goes from the school's auditorium, down one hall, around a corner, down another hall, back outside, then around the edge of the school. Like, over a full minute of brisk walking to get to the end of the line.
7am, we stand, and we start to inch forward. So I quit, because I have to get ready for work because we still work today because nobody actually believes in the democratic process.
I'll stick my nose in there on the way to work and see what it looks like... Then, if that fails, my last chance will be tonight when I get home at 7pm. Go stand forever with the late comers.
(Note: I usually take Election Day off, for just this reason -- I only have a three hour window to vote, split between the morning and the evening.)
Above all, I just want to get this shit over with.
Also...why does this feel like a whiny entitled Fajwat post?
