November 4th

I know, I know, it's been past "a few days" since my last post. I've fallen into a serious routine that goes something like this: Get up, shower, go to work, come home, feed Mia, go to bed. Get up, shower, go to work, come home, feed Mia go to bed. Don't get me wrong, I love the routine. It just doesn't leave much room for spontaneity, like blogging. So, I'm bloggin' at work. Shh!

I'm SO excited!! I bought three Twilight movie tickets last week for myself, Nicole and Linds for the November 21st showing at 9:30. Did I mention that I'm excited? If you didn't catch that, I am. I've been obsessively fine-tooth combing my Google reader through the several Twilight related blogs that I've saved for pictures, interviews and trailers for the movie. I've probably spoiled the movie already from everything I've seen so far. Who cares, I'm still going to see it opening night.

To feed my obsession with Twilight and the actors (Oh God, Rob Pattinson is a hottie with a sexy British accent), I received a direct message via Twitter from one of my favorite people residing on the east coast (okay, she's probably the only person on the east coast that I know), Fran, saying, "Edward Cullen (Rob Pattinson) was on my radio show this morning, Sexy British accent. Adorably self-deprecating personality. I'm in love.", I seriously started squealing. At work. My coworkers looked at me like I was nuts. My reply to this was something along the lines of, "Edward Cullen was on my friend's radio this morning! This justifies squealing!!" All the while blushing severely and trying to crawl under my desk. I have to remind myself to act like an adult. Say it with me: You are an adult. You are an adult.

Today is voting day! I haven't mentioned anything about politics previously because I hear about it enough at work and at home and I didn't want to discuss it here. Work politics always turn to the issues about homosexuals and religion. I just nod and space out when this happens. At home it's almost the same thing. My mom and I have different political views and for the longest time I wouldn't tell her who I was voting for. This would lead to a very long discussion (not argument) about the two different parties and why we thought the candidate we were voting for would make a good president. Not to mention their running mates and our opinions on them. It's been a crazy race so far with all of the media involvement. After much deliberation, I've decided that I'm voting for the Democratic party. A lot of this decision was made after McCain announced Sarah Palin as his running mate. That woman scares the shit out of me. Seriously. I think McCain is a great senator for Arizona, but he's getting up there in age. What if he dies? President Pa.. Pa.. Pa.. I can't even spell it, it's so terrible! So if you're registered, get out there and vote! It's time for a change. By the end of the day, we'll either have an African American president or a woman VP in the white house. This day will go down in history.
