my first election! how exciting! I get off work in about 30 minutes and then i’m off to vote! This whole voting business has been crazy. All the campaign stuff and the phone calls and decision making. Between having hellah conservative family members, and hellah liberal friends…it has been difficult to see things for myself and not be influenced by others. I finally think I’ve come to a conclusion. My vote feels so important right now because of Missouri’s history. Especially the district I’m in. I really hope all these college kids that are acting so political actually vote. I really worry sometimes. To a lot of people I think this is just a trend…like its cool to own an opinion about politics. Not for yourself or your beliefs or what you want out of life–but simply so you can look like you’re “in the know” in certain settings. Oh well.
Went out last night. Completely unexpected. Quinton’s opened their new skybar and it is very cool. I find myself partying with people from the lake. Never really expected that, but its all good. They’re fun people and they know how to party. Even on Mondays. I met this guy who smelled like flowers. Not like, roses, but like…geraniums. I told him that, and he told me he was a landscaper! I have a good nose.
It is so beautiful outside. I can’t believe this weather. I wish it would be like this year round. The trees are so pretty. I love Missouri fall.
