Voting

Yesterday I got back from a client meeting just in time to go vote before I picked up Ella. We vote at the firehouse which is a five minute walk from our house and I could see the stream of cars going in and out. So I thought I better go now before it gets later in the evening and the line gets longer.
I feel it is important to vote, it is a right we have been given and to think that at one time women were unable to, so since I was 18 I have been a devoted voter.
Anyway, I walk in, they find my name and off I go. Once I approach the table I am asked for my ID and then in a super loud voice the elderly lady states loud and clear for the whole firehouse to hear- "YOU'RE A REPUBLICAN," and I tuck in fear. Wow, that caught me off guard, I grab the voting sheet, and hurry to the desk, fill it out and walk out fast. Not that I was embarrassed, but I noticed that the folks behind me were not having their party broadcasts to the group.

Later that evening, the three of us walked back to the firehouse to vote and I cautioned Kyle, and of course he did not have the same experience. Go figure.

I watched Hillary and part of Obama's speeches last night. I believe things will really begin to heat up now.
