Dear America

[asphaltcowgrrl]

I apologize on behalf of my entire state for dragging our feet in regard to counting our votes. We're not all drunk at a strip club, promise!

(Sorry, don't mean to get political, but my anxiety has reached a peak I never knew existed and it's all because of my damn state. And my second home, Arizona.)

ETA: One of our ballot questions here was whether or not to add protection for same sex marriages into our constitution and, from last check, it was passing with something like 62% approval. One of my kids pointed out to me last night that we are the first state to add protections of this sort to our constitution. So, we're not all bad. Just... slow AF. :)

Ugh. It's torturous, isn't it? I've been doing my best to only get the top line details, and from the web. I physically can't watch the news coverage - too stressful.

I gave up actually watching the news when I was pregnant with Taylor nearly 21 years ago. It would make me physically ill. So, I've had the Washington Post's home page up. It's easier that way. I can see the updated numbers and breaking news stories and choose what I want to look at.

*hugs* Take care of yourself!
