tomorrow's the big day!

Yes, all over the US people will be forming long lines, sometimes standing in wait for hours, in order to hear the latest news about my progress in the operating theatre.

 

I'm hoping this will be the last of my seemingly interminable sequence of adventures under the bright lights. The surgeon is planning to implant three arterial stents (or kissing stents, as the technical jargon charmingly calls them), two in the iliac region for arteries supplying the legs and one in a renal artery. I should be home by mid-/late evening, and expect to clank as I walk.

 

Just so long as I can get up the stairs to watch the election results come in . . .

 

I don't care who you plan to vote for -- Barack Obama or that lying warmonger McCain -- but, if eligible, make sure you vote!

Thanks!

"Tomorrow I will be voting for Barack Obama"

That knowledge will pull me through all adversity . . .

There's actually quite a lot of us, you know.

"There's actually quite a lot of us, you know."

Not after the Diebold machines have finished the counting, there won't be.

Yes, I'm worried about that, too. I think the election has to be pretty close for that sort of cheating to work, though -- and it really doesn't look like it will be close at all.

But yes, the suspense is killing me as well.

BTW, if you haven't heard it yet, here's something to raise your spirits:

The timing of this thing's release is fairly delightful.

Yes. As I commented elsewhere, the worst thing -- even worse than the ignorance and dimwittedness -- is that this jumped-up small-town Alaskan mayor tries to be patronizing to an internationally significant politician -- as if he's a quaint little Frog who has to be humoured.

So embarrassing for us in this country!

Even more embarassing for John McCain. I swear she's out to kill him with this stuff.

On Tuesday night, if the election is called for Obama, I'll consider all this Palin stuff to be very funny and quaint. Otherwise, it's just plain terrifying.
