On the eve of "The Great Election"

So, I was contacted by my local public radio station seeking comments about my Election Day plans. Here are my responses for your reading enjoyment:

What are your plans for Election Day -- and night?

7:30 AM: Voting early -- as soon as my kids let me get out of the house.
7:50 AM: Off to work.
8:30 AM: Arrive at work. Check the internet and radio to find out who is winning despite the fact that polls won't close for many many hours.
8:45 AM: Having not found any information about who won yet, return to working.
10:00 AM: Check internet to see who has won. Surprisingly, still no answer.
10:10 AM: Return to working.
12:00 PM: Turn on radio to see who has won. Nothing yet. Hmmm, sensing a theme here. Eat lunch.
1:00 PM: Return to work.
1:20 PM: Check internet to see if there are any realistic predictions about who won. Frustrated, close Internet Explorer.
1:25 PM: Return to work, this time resolved to NOT check until polls actually close.
4:30 PM: Ignore resolve and check internet once more to see if there is anything new on the "winning" front. Still nothing.
4:45 PM: Leave to pick up kids from daycare. Obsessively listen to radio for news on the election.
7:00 PM: Leaving kids with husband, head off to weekly knitting group to discuss lines at polling places and discuss likely election outcomes, all the while busily making Holiday gifts.
9:00 PM: Return home and sit on couch with husband watching election returns until bleary-eyed and babbling incomprehensibly about who won.
Sometime in the wee hours of the morning: Bed.

How, if at all, do your plans differ from years past?

Planning on voting earlier than normal to avoid lines.

Where are you planning on getting your election night news?

When in the car -- Public Radio. When at home -- obsessively switching between CNN, MSNBC, and networks trying to find ANYONE who can tell me the outcome. This is so exciting!

What other events should we know about that are happening on Nov. 4?

Are there other events?

I crack myself up.
