Nanowrimo Day 6: I Did Not Vote for Steve Heretick


This bus was driving around Norfolk when I took the kids to dance class this afternoon. It was empty. There were STEVE HERETICK! signs taped all over it. And after all of this bus marketing, he lost the election anyway. I'm glad I didn't vote for Steve Heretick today. It's not that I begrudge him that vote, or revel in the possibility that my one small vote could have been the one vote to put Steve Heretick into the state senate (or whatever). It's just this: voting for a man named Steve Heretick and then having him lose the pissant little invisible election anyway would just too deeply epitomize my general feelings of despair and absurdity today. At least I can say I did not vote for Steve Heretick. There is always that one brittle rod to which my failing fingers can cling.

    Thanks for your comment on my Hero Workshop blog. Billy Bragg is number 6.

    I may have to get you to look at my NaNoWriMo novel in December :)

    Thanks for the comment. I am way behind today. Need to write 3000 words to be just barely caught up. For me World of Warcraft calls my name...
