Hey all!
This is my FIRST TIME EVER voting and i just want you all to know that truly is a milestone! I have never been interested in voting ... even when I was totally against the Bush regime I wasn't convicted nor inspired enough to go out there and vote, but one man has inspired me to vote, Barack Obama.
Not everyone may share my views ... he's an idealist ... so am I ... so we kind of share the same values, views and ideas. Please don't misunderstand me, I am not a fanatic, I am not a FAN ... I am a supporter who agrees, for the most part, with Barack's vision for this country. I dont' agree with every point he makes, nor with every issue he supports or does not.
But what I do know is ... you should go VOTE!!!! I did. I got my sick (yes i'm totally infected!), lazy (really lazy), half asleep tush out of my warm bed and shuffled to the polling site at 8:30am. Although I had really said to myself that I was going to go closer to 7:00am ... LOL ... didn't happen.... clearly. But I suffered for my laziness, procrastination and waited an hour before I could vote. But I voted and that's what mattered.
As a note, should you all decide to vote (and I hope that you all do! Regardless of whether or not your state is blue or red) do NOT wear any Obama-wear or pins ... nothing. It's apparently known as some ridiculous term like "campaigneering" ... totally bonkers. Bring ID, please know what election district you are registered in or you'll be waiting even longer. You can always do a little bit of research online to find out where you're registered and what polling site is your polling site. For New Yorkers, like me (although I would really consider myself a New-Californi-Alaska-Yorker LOL!), if you go to nyc.gov you can type in your name and address and it will give you the breakdown! I'm sure it's mostly the same for all other states!
So .. yeah ... that's all I wanted to say ... go VOTE.
Cheers!
