I am inordinately pleased. After another long and pointless meeting had finally finished keeping me from getting anything substantive done, I walked back to my cube and what to my wondering eyes did appear? Some pop culture porn shipped halfway around the world to me by Bibliodiva and my absentee ballot! Yes, I know, it's only for the primary of a party that doesn't much matter in the state where I vote, but it still means that I'm plugged back in as part of the process - a whiff of the political air that I used to breath every day in my adopted hometown of DC. I promptly dove in and researched candidates with little more than failed runs and the school board on their resumes. It's all filled out and ready to drop in the mail tomorrow.
And now to bed, where I can read my dry labor memoir of the 60's for a few minutes before flipping over to the summer blockbuster reviews.
Ahhhh......

Ah! I was just wondering if I needed to keep an eye out for your absentee ballot. So glad you got it!
Meetings are AWESOME, are they not?
Where does one see summer blockbusters in Kabul?
And I was surprised that I had to fill out a customs slip to mail that package to you.
I can neither confirm nor deny that one can obtain extremely cheap dvds of dubious origin (and shakey-cam quality) at the weekly bazaar only a week or two after they come out in theaters.
