We vote at an elementary school, in the gym. As of 6:30 this morning, the line wrapped, as near as I could tell, around the outside of the gym and back to then loop around the interior walls of a massive room next to the gym.
I was only acting as a driver, because I have to leave at 7:30 to do kidsitting. I can't get to the polls until around 1:00PM and when I saw the line I figured no way would I make that in time. It was almost 7:00 by the time I'd circled the block to find parking. I don't find it consoling that my puppeteer friends, who share my political views, will be in the same boat. Only, y'know, with kids to complicate the day.

Yurgh.

So! You see me in the back of a police cruiser. What was I arrested for?

Inexplicably carrying a sword in a public place.

Hey, when I carry a sword in public it's for a good reason! Like a Renn faire... or a Hallowe'en costume...

Err... yeah, okay, I can see it.

I imagine people were trying to vote before heading to work, hopefully the line won't be as long when it's your turn!

Muppet larceny.

Would you believe they actually had a couple machines sitting empty? It was amazing. I was in and out in minutes.

Is that stealing Muppets, or stealing with Muppets? Because I can totally see Animal getting out of hand, and I wouldn't put shoplifting past Rizzo.
