Vote today in the VA primaries! Polls open until 7pm, and low expected turnout means your tiny lil votes will make a big difference in Nov.

For you single-issue voters, here's some gay voting info sources:

and there is always the Post. For once I'm clueless in this election, completely clueless. I'm fortunate I live in an area where the republicans are so conservative and the democrats so fiscally responsible that the real elections are no brainers. I don't hate republicans or love democrats, but the choice is clear in VA. The question then is "Which democrat in the primary" or "Which nazi will most revolt voters?"

MIXED BLESSING
My dear friend from law school just called me and was on the verge of very unhappy because our criminal law grades were up. My friend and I have jockeyed for position in school, with her edging me out then blowing me away last semester. She got a C+ in the class - I can't believe it. I probably shouldn't have, but while I was on the phone with her I checked my grade - a B-. I think this is one of the happiest low grades of my life, as I was really concerned that I had failed or done poorly. B- is the average grade in our school with the curve. In this rare case, I'm perfectly happy with the B-.

I didn't fail. Oh sweet not dropping out of law school unless I choose to rather than because I bombed goodness. But guilty pleasure, I really wish my friend did better than I did. She's really hurt by this, and I hate to see her in pain. Not a damn thing I can do, no words of consoling would work - except I am a good audience because I know how and why she cares. Ugh.

I'm happy for me. God, most of all I'm happy for me, but my friend is too sad to cry.
