Think you’re registered to vote? Be sure. Please make sure you get out there and make your voice heard. And please let’s get Bush out of office. Some stats from moveonpac.org:
We know this election will be incredibly close. The numbers from the 2000 election tell the story:
Official Bush margin in Florida 537 votes
Gore margin in New Mexico 365 votes
Margin of victory in IA, NH, OR and WI Fewer than 8,000 votes in each
Eligible 18-24 year olds who didn’t vote 15.2 million
Total eligible voters who didn’t vote 56.8 million
Sheesh. Exercise your rights. Vote.
And off the soapbox, the St. Louis Cardinals are now the Central Division champs, so it’ll be a little crazy here as we prepare for the playoffs. Yay Cards! I have to make sure I watch none of the games so they WILL win. I’m sure you’ve heard how if I watch a game or pay any sort of attention to a radio broadcast, the team I’m rooting for loses. So I’ll just root from the (far-away) sidelines and cross my fingers that the Cards do great things. Yahoo! Go Redbirds!
I can’t believe I have an orgo exam on monday. I’m going to die. I still have all the actual homework problems from chapter 2 and I haven’t even started on the ones from ch 3, which I’m not done reading yet. Argh! I hate this class.
But I might learn how to knit on saturday morning. After I go into work, of course. *grumble*
Alright, alright. I’m going home to do homework. And watch Father of the Bride.
