Voting

11/5/2014

I'm glad I voted and I'm glad smart friends educated me about the judges in advance. I'm glad my ballot receipt has 4 languages on it. I'm glad my polling place is the fire station around the corner. I'm glad I got to vote right next to three shiny, red trucks as I am a fan of such things. I'm glad that while I was voting there was an announcement about a fire in the neighborhood and that it didn't sound urgent. I'm glad I saw four firefighters take off their shoes and put on their firefighting outfits replete with exciting suspenders and put on their long boots and get onto the center truck and speed off into the late afternoon.The truck was gone in less than 20 seconds. I really feel like I got a two-for -one. The only thing missing was a Dalmatian.
