Votey Voterson

I went at 10am this morning and cast my vote. There was a line which is not common at my voting place. I suppose this means turnout is good. When we arrived, I was greeted by the candidate for City Council and the Lieutenant Governor of Virginia. Not bad for a little neighborhood.

The Republican Candidate left when we were coming out. He got into a brand new (still had 30 days tags) Volvo SUV. Thank goodness I didn't waste my vote there. I just wrote a $759 check for a month of health insurance and he is spending the same on a car. This might require a letter to his campaign. Not to future candidates: Drive a smaller, less expensive car so I know where my money is going. In a 2005 Volvo, you don't need my vote.
Rude? sure.

On a happy note, I am emailing Hershey Foods to ask why they have never made a Reese's Cup the size of a pie? I would buy it and see if that would make me never eat one again. I really really want to try.

I think the election has finally put me over the edge.
