The First Time

I'm going to my very first caucus tonight. I'm excited and nervous and nervous and excited. Not necessarily in that order. Yes, I get excited about voting. I can't help myself. It is a little-known fact Tiny Robot's Optimism chip overpowers the Cynicism matrix when the glimmer of idealistic democracy sounds its siren call from the precinct nearby. So I literally can't help myself!

Baby G is accompanying me to the polls after they close so we can sign in and caucus for our candidate. I may just even volunteer to be a state delegate...if they'll have me. *Nerd blush!*

Sigh. Too bad tomorrow it'll be back to the grind, the political mud-slinging, and the campaign promises washed in the tears of virgins and dried with the softest of kitten fur...
