It look over three hours, sitting at the dining room table with my laptop, my three-page ballot, voter guides, and miscellaneous printouts -- but my absentee ballot is filled out and sealed and ready to be delivered to a polling place tomorrow. And I feel pretty satisfied, although I still would have been even better pleased if I had managed to do some of the research a wee bit ahead of time...

Meanwhile, I got distracted and forgot to put the laundry in the dryer, and then forgot to check the setting (so it was on low and took even longer). Result: last part of laundry is still drying, technically breaking the HOA rules which say the laundry room hours end at 10:00 PM. Ho hum.

Mind you, the laundry is only one of the several chores that I did not get done this weekend. But I guess the rest of them will wait a bit longer...

And I ought to be in bed by now, but I am kind of keyed up, and also think it will do me good to sit on the sofa with a heating pad on my back for a while. So what the heck. I'm going to do that, and have a glass of sherry to celebrate my minor victory over the impenetrable and daunting electoral process.

Only in the Bay Area do you get to worry that if the vote is split between two ultra-progressives, an ordinary business-as-usual Democrat may get elected instead. I sure wish I could find a current poll on the Oakland mayoral race...
