I hope this will be over today. Pennsylvania (which is my state) is so messed up that it's embarrassing. I know that Governor Wolf did his best but the deep-red Legislature fought him at every turn. Before the next election Pennsylvania needs to do a complete overhaul on our vote-counting procedures.

So anyway, the election can be called today and Pennsylvania will still be counting votes for another week. Fine, it's not going to matter but I do want the world to know that Pennsylvania did come out and vote for Biden.

If this drags out that long, Chump has time to do more ratfucking. Let's call this thing over.

I normally take 3 at night, though my prescription is for 4, so I've managed to build up a pretty good surplus.

I did manage to get a little sleep after around 5 am.

I've always been able to handle occasional very high dosages without much effect. I guess extreme anxiety does that.

I'm feeling kind of hungover today. I think I'm past the worst of the anxiety.

and I take clonazepam as needed. Usually .25mg 2-3 times a week. In '16 I remember I had to take .75 just to fall asleep--I was so stunned and stressed. Last night was better: just a half mg. I felt a little hungover myself--combination of the drug and shitty sleep. I think we'll all feel a lot better once Biden is declared winner!

Which means that I had 7mg last night.

In '16 I just took a fistful along with as much wine as I could get down myself and felt absolutely no effect. I ended up eating a whole bag of leftover Halloween candy, and that helped a little.

I think it was particularly traumatic having DU down, plus the fact that It actually won.

I'm feeling quite a bit better tonight. Hope you're feeling better too.

Anxiety really sucks.

counties Trump won in 2016, and maybe 80000 are in Clinton-won counties. If so, the race will tighten and we will have to wait and see.

Michigan gives him 16 more so 264
and Nevada would give him 6 more for 270
