kittydesadeI have a stress headache today. This is most unfair.
NC went typical of the country, as far as I can tell. On the one hand we no longer have a supermajority of the GOP, a couple of constitutional amendments giving the legislature power over election committee and I think it was judgeships? I'm very tired. Those were shot down, we picked up the Supreme Court which normally I would say judges should be non-partisan but. Well. That only works when the GOP is a reasonable political party instead of a slobbering pack of racist slime molds.
On the other hand we're still sending Mark Meadows and Patrick McHenry to Congress, ew. We didn't pick up as many seats as we could have and the godsdamned voter ID amendment passed. I hate that fucking thing.
Fooey. I'm overtired and overheated and still going to capoeira because it'll probably be very good for me, if I'm being honest. I could use the exercise, I'm not losing the weight I want to and it's annoying me, and I could use the activity to calm my brain down about elections and the resultant shitfit being pitched in the direction of the DoJ. But I'm definitely going to continue to be sulky and overheated. My brain is moving like molasses which is not good since I need to try and get some words banged out in novels before I go kick things. I'd rather not lose my lead.
I did figure out how to Huevember in a way that doesn't put undue burden on me on top of Nanowrimo, which is to do space scenes like planets and planet surfaces and nebulae and so on, in colored pencils. What I wanted to do was draw anime characters and color them in with colored pencils but my ability to draw decent anime characters is laughable and frustrates me, so then I ended up drawing Omaumau the Maybe Alien Craft, and that turned out hella nice! So, yeah, Huevember will be Space Shit In Colored Pencil. Or very simple landscapes. That kind of thing.
Bleh. I hope I get to bed on time tonight. Which should happen because it's not an election I'm going to sit up worrying about after I've not looked at results in long enough that there should be a lot of semi-concrete results in hindsight I should have just gone to bed after Death in Paradise. Anyway. I hope I get to bed on time tonight. But on the plus side if I don't tonight it's much more likely to be because I sat up drawing.
