What will you be doing on November 3rd?

[PartyPooper]

Me? I'll be celebrating the defeat of fascism and the return of democracy to Amerika.

What about you?

:toast:

[freetobegay]

1. Teaching people the correct spelling of America.

[amerikat]

10. I resemble that remark

It's just a form of protest.....atleast for me it is.

[freetobegay]

11. I was just being a prude

I still am a proud American, I refuse to let them take that away from me!

[amerikat]

14. I'll always be an American.....not currently proud of it .....but

all that can change on or about November 3rd.:dem: :kick:

[ofrfxsk]

2. recovering from a hang over

JBH

[da_chimperor]

3. I'll still be drunk, actually

nursing my hangover is what November 4th is reserved for.

[demgrrrll]

6. I will still be in the conga line snaking through St. Louis.

I have this fantasy of people pouring into the streets like VE day when Bush loses. CoNga!

[amerikat]

15. The real conga line starts in Boston......fear not, it will reach your

city too.

[SmileyBoy]

4. Walking down campus with a 25 mile-wide grin on my face.

Food will taste a little better. The air will smell a little cleaner. Sex will feel a little better. My CD music will sound a little more melodic. And the sky and the ground and the trees and the buildings and the people and all who encompass my world will look a little better.

[tedoll78]

5. I'll probably be recovering.

I'm having a few friends over to my place for the election coverage. I've placed an order at kerrygear.com for a few Kerry shot glasses (really nice cobalt blue!), so I suspect that I'll be hungover. Or still intoxicated. It just depends.

If Kerry wins, I'll be relaxing all day long and watching the media whores consume their big, steaming piles of crow. I suspect they'll want some Heinz ketchup to help choke it down.

[fizzana]

7. Watching Fox News all day long

that should be good for a barrell of laughs.

[Crunchy Frog]

8. Whatever happens

I will probably be completely hungover, emotionally exhausted, and spending the entire day asleep.

[sleipnir]

9. Hungover as all get out and working a 12 hour day.

Sadly, an idiot scheduled a 12 hour day on Wed. I'll work, but it probably won't be too productive.

[qnr]

12. Completing a bus trip started on the 1st, unfortunately.

I've already voted though, so I guess it's ok. I'll be thrilled that Kerry is our next president, but nervous due to the evaluation I have the next day at the VA hospital. :shrug:

[PartyPooper]

13. We all hope it goes okay for you at the VA hospital.

It sounds like a long journey for you. Please take good care of yourself. And, let us know how your're doing.

Peace.

:grouphug:

[qnr]

17. Thanks, will do n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

16. It's a Wednesday, right?

I'll be going to school.

[WindRavenX]

18. very very hung over

Regardless of who wins.

[neomonkey]

19. I will be nursing a headache and grinning broadly! n/t

[eyesroll]

20. Probably moving.

Not what I'd intended to do Nov. 3, but since I've had that day off anyway, and I have to move, might as well do it then.

[jus_the_facts]

21. Let the lawsuits begin....

:nopity:

[FunBobbyMucha]

22. November 5th, 2002, my republican friend came home...

...to discover his house, lawn, car, and basketball backboard COVERED, nay, SMOTHERED in Clinton/Gore signs.

Would love to duplicate that punking in a few days.

Otherwise, will be depressed and discussing with wife whether we're going to move to New Zealand, Canada, or the Netherlands, reverse pilgrims fleeing puritan persecution and subjugation.

(J/K, would never let my country go without a fight)

[LWolf]

23. Well, lets see.

At dawn, I'll get up, greet the sun with a smile, and magnanimously and kindly wish George W. Bush a peaceful, serene, retirement. I'll get to work at 7:00am, and set up my classroom for the day, taking care of as many small details from the day before as possible before the Wednesday morning torture chamber; the staff meeting. There will be some big smiles, and some frowns at the meeting. But the destructive mandates will not have changed.

Then I'll be off to spend the day with 32 ten-year-olds, doing my best to help them find success in spite of the mandates, which will not have changed.

At lunch I will rush down to the local "Mailbox & More" store to mail a package to President-Elect Kerry, since I can't make it to the post office while they are open. The package will include a library of professional books about public education refuting standardized testing and high-stakes "bribe/punish" policies as a way to address the achievement gap. It will also include a letter of congratulations, welcome, and concern for the direction of public education. It will include a reminder that funding bad legislation doesn't make the legislation better, just as weighing the cow more often doesn't make it grow faster. It will include the sincere hope from this Democrat, voter, and professional, that the reader will "see" this light and deal with public ed policy accordingly, and offer to assist him in his efforts to dismantle the current accountability legislation in favor of something that would not only not harm public ed, but actually do it some good.

I'll rush back to school without having had a chance to eat lunch.

After school I'll sit at my desk, and decide whether to attack the hours of paper correcting sitting there, or work on next week's lesson plans. I don't know at this point which will win out. I'll be there until 6:30 or 7:00 to get either one of those jobs done, leaving the rest for the next morning, before...the blessed Thursday morning "committee" meeting.

By then, I will have been working for 11 1/2 or 12 hours, with the only break spent running my postal errand.

I will go home, deal with mail, phone messages, and animals demanding dinner and attention. I will warm something up in the microwave, eat it, deal with email, take a soothing hot bath, and be sound asleep by 9:00, ready to do the whole thing, minus the postal errand, all over again the next day.

[DinahMoeHum]

24. Recovering from a hopefully happy hangover. . .

and taking a day off from work.

:party:

[RebelOne]

25. If Kerry wins, I'll be celebrating.

But if Bush is elected, I'll be packing to move to Canada.

[deadparrot]

26. At school, then HOPEFULLY watching network news for the remainder

of the day.

[demnan]

27. I will go to work (after taking election day off to volunteer)

where I will either be happy all day or terribly depressed.
