Early bird catches the....

Election day is right around the corner and while I'm not the most political person, I do still try to vote in all the major elections.  Up until a few days ago I was wondering how I was going to be able to vote this year considering I leave for the gym and then work at 4:30 am and the polls don't open until 6 am here and usually I never make it home in enough time in order to hit the polling place after work.  However, with living on the other side of the river for this election, this great state gives its residents the ability to participate in Early Bird Voting starting earlier this week.  I had to make a trip to Village Hall this morning to drop off my utility payment and decided why not get my civic duty out of the way so I don't have to worry about switching around my schedule on Election Day.  Let me tell you, it worked perfectly, no hiccups and I was in and out of there within minutes.  (Of course, since I try to be the model of efficiency and time effectiveness, I studied and researched my specimen ballot last week...remember?)

Now, I just wish I could stop all of the political bulk mailings that are clogging my tiny mailbox and the slanderous tv ads.....ugh, annoying!
