I bought a bottle of Redbreast for tomorrow evening. I manage one of 38 poll locations in the county. We'll close at 7 tonight and tomorrow. I'll be home about 830 after transporting our ballots to county elections department. I will put on jammies and slippers and crack it open to watch the results come in. I imagine I will fall asleep in the chair, hopefully with a smile.
Sorry for the bird site link, but I don't know how else to ppas this video of "Bohemian Trumpsody" 🤣

We have an ask.
What would do if you didn't have CounterSocial?
Think really hard about that. Look at the other socials. Really imagine being stuck in all of that *right now*.
If you cherish this place as much as we do, please pitch in if you can. Go Pro.
Can't go Pro? We've got you covered. Just keep on being you. 👊 #CoSoTips
Had more cornbread than pan, so did a small skillet, put it on top of the other pan because of small toaster oven, it needed a bit of a toasting on the bottom on the stove, and 'spoiled' the top of the wedges, but it all tastes delicous. No Buttermilk, so vanilla yogurt and milk for the mix. Martha White comes through again!
Today, Jane Fonda came to boost one of our local candidates for County Commissioner - which has been six Republicans for the last 60 years. Fonda's PAC picks progressive / environmental candidates down ballot to back.
The last two contestants for CC3 each increased our vote percentage but never enough to win. Perhaps this is the year. #politics
I'm curious about the crowd in TX later today. #Politics
Good morning 🌞 my beautiful friends. ☕
“None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an afterthought.
• Eat the delicious food.
• Walk in the sunshine.
• Jump in the ocean.
Say the truth that you’re carrying in your heart like hidden treasure. Be silly. Be kind. Be weird.
There’s no time for anything else.”

The only way it could be worse is if we had to use a phone keypad and punch each button several times for the desired letter.
Well good morning and thanks for having coffee with me. Off for a quick shower and then headed out for poll worker training this morning. I've been doing this for several years and while it's sometimes slow in the early days it's good to see everyone come into the polls. I anticipate this election will be *interesting*.
Today, there are more factories getting built, more auto and construction jobs, and more American energy being produced than any day when Donald Trump was president. - Tim Walz

Yesterday, I advised my boss that the future requires product development that is every bit worth the time, but not as easily quantifiable or measurable.
OK yeah. I don't need nor do I want to be project managed.
On a different project call yesterday with my boss and colleagues...
PM: "Are we good meeting these dates?"
ME: "Yes, but I have a proposition on the table to change how we are executing this to get it done a year earlier. "
