I always have choir rehearsal on Tuesdays.
Last presidential election, I was working for the technologically saavy but soon to be laying everyone off company, and had a nice Internet-enabled phone. During rehearsal, everytime I wasn’t supposed to actually be singing, I was looking up election results at CNN.
Now I’m paying for my own cellphone (the horror!), and can’t even manage to keep the thing charged more than 10% of the time, I have the barebones, absolutely cheapest basic plan that Verizon doesn’t even bother to advertise, which needless to say does not include web access.
This Tuesday I will be at choir rehearsal. Should I call Verizon and find out what it would cost to be connected on election day? Or should I leave well enough alone, try to concentrate on choir, and be surprised when I get in my car at 10:00 PM MST?
Oh, just leave well enough alone. You have voted and there is not much else you can do about it … just keep a 5th of scotch available just in case you wake up and find your candidate did not win.
I think you’re right. Except that it’s a 5th of Jameson’s.
