Let's roll some dice, watch some movies, or generally just geek out. New posts at 6:30 pm ET but only if I have something to say. Menu at the top. gsllc@chirp.enworld.org on Mastodon and @gsllc on Twitter.
I don’t like discussing politics (or any serious matters) on this blog, so I rarely do. That said, as I’ve told you before, Election Night is as exciting for me as the Super Bowl, so I’m going to discuss it today. All I’m going to say is this: Not matter who wins . . . .
Two relevant things to know about me: 1) I grew up in a political-focused family and for a small time worked in politics professionally (big fish in a small pond); and 2) I rarely drink.
For me, Election Night is as exciting as the Super Bowl, so I bought a bottle of wine and have settled in to watch the excitement. No movies, no sports, no Man in the High Castle season 2; just the election. Last night was exciting despite a lack of resolution due to the absentee and mail-in ballots. I know that’s not how most of you think because of the consequences, but that added dimension is a lot of fun for me. Even better, I wound up on a couple of Zoom calls with some friends I haven’t see in a while.

I estimate I got about 2 hours of sleep, but I was still energized for the day. It didn’t slow me down at all.
I have a strict no politics rule on this blog. However, it’s Election Day, so I can’t help but violate that rule today. This cause is just too important.
