lines are new and shiny

like so many others
line at my polling place for the first time ever
and I changed my supervisor choice at the VERY LAST MINUTE - hope I don't end up regretting that one

now for a day of keeping volunteers full of coffee
we have about 4 people upstair (since 8am!) who are calling LGBT folks in Ohio to remind them to vote
so far everyone they have called has been NICE NICE NICE and happy that we care enough to not make them feel alone out there in swing state land
(having lived in a swing for awhile - it really always felt like liberal was the minority, regardless of the actual numbers)

anyways
if anyone wants to come over to the queer community center and call folks for a while
there's free soda and coffee - just come to 1800 Market St @ Octavia and go to room 305
(please - we have about 6000 names total that we can call if we have enough people power)

good times

bonding with midwestern queers = fun
