Election 2012

YOUGUYS. It's election day. Some thoughts: I am so happy to live in a country where I can vote. I am sad by all the things that make it hard for disenfranchised Americans to vote. If Romney wins women may as well stuff their vags with cotton and sew 'em shut. obamaobamaobama. The electoral collage is weird. Partasinism is too entrenched and it's creating really scary rhetoric. This was my first vote via absentee ballot - and I'm sure it wasn't counted. Why do we STILL have a two party system? I want Obama to win. Long (like, 3+ hours long) lines to vote in VA. Obama!

its beginning to look a lot like...

i know i know i KNOWWW its too early. (I just bought my Halloween costume today!) The stores have already started which is hella not cool, but can we just indulge for one tiny second? Then I swear I will go back to loving fall to the fullest.

Anatomy of a perfect fall day

-trip to the mall, because equestrian clothes
-making time to be outside, like during phone calls
-homemade oatmeal chocolate chip cookies
-sweats and tv in bed

(I actually only have pictures with Annie from an old fashion camera so I can't share them here, but there was a reunion, and it was wonderful.)
