the election

So yesterday was election day here in Indiana.  I looked at the Republican ballot and it was really boring.  There were no closely contested races, so thanks to our open primary, I decided to vote Democrat as an operative in Operation Chaos.  When the inspector at the election site asked me which ballot I would like to take, I said, “Democrat,” and it felt really really weird saying that.  So I voted for Hil-dog, a couple people in the nonpartisan school board election, and a couple others.  I spent the night watching the results come in, and even though ol’ Hil-dog took Indiana, it’s looking like I might be wrong in the prediction I made a year ago that Hillary would be our next president.

In all honesty though, I was looking forward to her nationalized children’s healthcare.  I don’t know if I’m completely in favor of that, but I sure thought it would be interesting to see implemented on a national level for the first time in our country.

Then this morning, grades came out!  Only slightly lower than expected, I still amazed myself and my family with a top-of-the-class effort:  6 A’s, a B, and an S equaling a semester index of 3.88!  I don’t care if you think I’m boasting, I think I deserve a little credit after doing nothing but studying for 4 months straight.  Not to mention this was the hardest semester of my life — it’s all downhill from here!  The question on everyone’s mind tonight then is, “If you had quit gc earlier, would it have been a 4.0?”  Well, dear friends, in the words of Shane, “Probly.”
