I was just curious, because my location just seemed like... very low-tech, you know? Even lower than the machines I used... what, 25+ years ago! What the heck???
OOPS! Gotta run to get the boy. See ya!
. I will yap with you later 
How do you vote in your area? Not who did you vote for, but what is the ballot like?
When I was in HS we brought in polling machines, and you'd go inside, pull the curtain for privacy, and then there were a bunch of little levers to pull to make your selections.
I thought when I last voted (4 years ago) that we slipped our paper ballot into a panel, and then used a sharp object to punch out the selection we wanted. (I think these are the ones involved in the whole "hanging chad" controversy last time, though that was in FL, not WA.)
Anway, when I went to vote this time, I saw people carrying around their paper ballots, and there were little bubbles to color in for your selection! Isn't this going waaaaay backwards? I was surprised everything wasn't computerized!
In fact, they did have a new option that was electronic, basically using a credit-card type thing that you plugged into a machine which then displayed your ballot on a monitor. It was a touch screen and you just touched the box you wanted to select and it would fill in an x on the box onscreen. You just touched it again to de-select.
And NO CURTAIN! I was surprised, because people were walking around behind me and it bugged me! I felt like anybody could watch me as I cast my votes, reading along with me on the screen! (I don't think anybody was doing that, but there was nothing to stop them.)
Ours either have to be returned by mail or dropped off at one of the 5 ballot drop boxes in the County. I think there is a drop box in each town in the county...Kalama, Woodland, Longview, Kelso and Castle Rock.
Yep, just checked, there is one near our City Hall.
OK, I'm dying to know what gender the babies are...so just popped on for a few minutes to see if we know or if she's keeping us in suspense. I need to go grab some lunch and if Megan doesn't post it by this evening then I will just have to drive up and dangle some sugary snack like Twinkies in front of her until she tells me!
I have to agree with Dizzy. My girl is WAY more aggressive then my boy. He would never haul off and attack her, but she has NO problem beating him up.
Ummm... Alison. Im sorry. My appt. isnt until tomorrow.
You just blew your chances for free delivered twinkies....you sure you don't want to change that a bit???
So Dizzy... Whats shakin? Anything new?
For sure! I know how that goes.. Since Boeing went back to work, hubby is going to pull all the over time he can right now. Hopefully I will see him at Christmas.
. I know my philosophy right now is to make as much as I can while I can
Which way did the vote go, I didn't pay attention?
and then 
(best i could find for passed out on the couch in pain)
