Thriller in Canadia

The Associated Press:

The dictionary defines "meh" as an expression of indifference or boredom, or an adjective meaning mediocre or boring. Examples given by the dictionary include "the Canadian election was so meh."
That is just not so! Nearly a month ago I wrote a piece for the Huffington Post about how arts funding cuts cost Stephen Harper a conservative majority government. That's not meh! Holy Fuck got involved, I'm telling you, it was a riot.

Yub Nub

Four-thirty in the afternoon and I'm still too anxious to turn on the television and dive in to this election that, I think I can fairly say, I've been waiting for for a good part of my life now. I didn't expect to be so nervous, but I drank more than my usual amount of coffee and not much but bread in the way of food to, well, to exacerbate my nerves. Of course, I feel good about the likely outcome and I look forward to tonight. Expectations could not be higher, the day couldn't be more surreal, the election is simply so significant. My stomach is not an organ made to handle this election.

Gonna go run around in circle until the polls close. I hope everyone was able to vote today without incident!
