efmcc67 , Good luck today! Sometimes you just need rest. Can you go to the gym/get some activity done this weekend? I'll definitely have time this weekend. I'm just getting in this bad habit of exercising on the weekend only, which is better than nothing, but I'm not making much progress. I really want to start getting in one or two on weeknights to spread it out a little more. I've just been tired lately, or I have to run errands, or, or, or... Ahhhh, I gotcha. (that's why i go in the morning lol)

#FWP: I brought my lunch but I don't want it. I need to find a post office and should go now but I'd rather wait and go after work. I don't ~feel~ like working.

I bet they kicked the kid outside and put in ear plugs. God I really hope E doesn’t decide to play an instrument and end up sucking. I don’t know that I’m a good enough parent to sit through poorly played instruments... maybe the piano would be ok...

I've began to become concerned about our local mayoral race. The incumbent (democrat) mayor has made some unpopular decisions and as a result he lost the primary. However, he has decided to run a write-in campaign. I am afraid that this is going to cause the dem vote to be split between him and the primary winner and as a result the republican is going to win. bellaluna, yay for champagne brunch. LINGERLONGER, oh no. Maybe you should suggest the piano? At least then he can't bring it outside.

The randoms thread on GBCN is legitimately making me anxious with all of the people who are so la-di-da about their password security.

I live in an area so red democrats won't even bother to run (assuming there even are democrats that could run around here). I don't want to vote for a goddamn republican. But we have a Con Con initiative on the ballot so I will vote.

I am really only voting because of the Con Con initiative. I'm also really torn, a person I know is running for county judge, but the person is Republican. They are nice and their family is nice, but I can't...it's hard.

Do you mind if I ask your thoughts on the Con Con?

Do you mind if I ask your thoughts on the Con Con? Sure. I can see how a constitutional convention can be useful to update the constitution. I think it could be good to set term limits on legislators, but I dont know if there would be push back from lobbyists at the convention. Of course, anything decided on at the convention could be voted down by the citizens, so then nothing would get amended or updated and all that money is wasted. I keep seeing posts from both dems and reps that voting no is the best thing, because the convention would cost too much money. My ILs don't like it for fear of the supposed pension stuff. I'm really trying to get a clear take on the pros and cons before voting.

I'm trying to do my research but I'm running into unions saying no because of the pension stuff, and the concern about lobbyists. And then a lot of stuff about how it's good because things need to be changed. I guess I'm less concerned with a waste of money than I am with lobbyists getting their grubby hands in there and then getting very biased information before a vote on an amendment. Hm....
