Having a very normal morning on this very normal day.

Tradegood beat me to it with a great calendar.

I say check at 9pm pst to see if there’s any promising news and if not, keep calm, turn off the internet and play games or go to bed until tomorrow.

In 2020 a friend of mine made this amazing spreadsheet that was tracking all the mail in ballots slowly being opened and the chances of biden winning and it was right on the money so if we’re in that situation again I’ll see if he makes another and share it. It relieved a lot of anxiety for me.

I voted. The guy in front of me was arguing with the election worked about the tabulation machines being corrupt. He was at least nice about it and it seemed to come from a place of genuine concern. It’s hard for me to imagine true believers when the people delivering this news to him don’t seem convinced or convincing.

At 9 PM I am turning the Internet off on my phone to play some Metaphor, where I can worry about an allegory of politics for a while.

I am going to strongly ATTEMPT to just play Dragon Age tonight but I can never really do that. The not knowing anything starts to hurt as well. I will certainly try though, that I promise.

Ugh, I didn’t get much sleep last night, and I’m feeling panicky and gross at work.

I went to the first aid kit to grab something for a headache and had to choose between Tylenol and Aleve:

I went for the blue one out of principle (and also because I’ll probably want to drink tonight, and Tylenol & alcohol are a bad combo)

I deleted my earlier timid post of, “I voted.” because of how anxious I am about the election, but I am posting that sentiment again for posterity. I am not seeking out any news until tomorrow afternoon.

In the interim between now and every vote being tallied, I bought the Castlevania DLC for Vampire Survivors and a new plant to calm down.

A part of this process that I truly hate is that it’s timed in such a way that I wake up and then learn who is president. The worst christmas.
