It’s a strange season. I’m ambivalent about blogging, bogged down in a quagmire of political frustration, and not doing the things I said I wanted to do. Like write.
I did vote, though. Evidently I signed up to vote by mail before I knew about the warnings. I called the voting people, however, and they assured me that they will count every vote, after the signatures are verified, on November 4. Ninety-five thousand Coloradans are voting by mail this election. I guess I’m one of them. It makes me nervous, but at least I’m done.
I also officiated a wedding last week, along with my husband. In case you’re wondering, in Colorado, anyone can officiate a wedding. There are no standards. Your dog could do it, if you want. But I think we did a pretty good job. It was a lovely wedding, a beautiful day, and some damn fine officiating.
My computer is sick. I have mixed feelings about that as well. Of course I miss it like my right arm, but on the other hand, it’s nice to have to restrict myself to leftover time on my husband’s machine. I’m tempted to get off the grid completely and go back to paper.
What makes me happy today is this blog, written by a couple of octogenarians.
Enjoy.
