3. My daughter woke up with pinkeye, so I'm home today
probably a good thing, because I doubt I would have been able to stand being at work.

4. Same here--stress eating
I have some serious working out to do after this is all over. And I have no idea how I'm going to get through these next two days at work without losing my mind. Thank God for NPR. I least I'll be able to hear any breaking news.

5. Posted about this earlier, I'm with you!
Work today is just useless. I keep walking around, sneaking into people's offices and saying "Hey, did you hear that rumour on the 'Interwebs' this morning, something about Kerry In A Landslide!!!".

Hehe!

<3

6. I took off Tuesday and Wednesday
I've had the hardest time concentrating of my whole life over the last few weeks. If I can get a few key things done here at work today, I'll be home free until Thursday. It would be great if Kerry has already been declared the winner by then, b/c if this goes on for weeks, I'm not sure how I'll get through.

7. I took off work on Wednesday because I know I'll be up all night
tomorrow watching the returns and then celebrating the next President, President Kerry. That has such a nice ring to it. But as you can tell, I'm not getting much work done today either. Probably not tomorrow either.

14. ME too!!!!!
I came in to work today because I want to take tomorrow off to help drive voters. My hubby was the smart one - he took today and tomorrow off (which I guess you can do when you own a business, which he does, but I don't.)

So I'm sitting here at work checking DU, KOS, ATRIOS, etc... and I can't seem to focus on anything. I'm ten lbs fatter, and I have circles under my eyes!

NOV 3 can't come soon enough!
