UGH!

I feel sick. I forgot to vote, amongst other things. I mean, I really feel sick about it! It really is hard to live with myself sometimes. ugh. I did remember to make my kids lunch, wash a load of whites so I have underwear (dang, I need to go put them in the dryer), help take dinner to a family that has sick kids and one in the hospital, visit a woman who needed friendship, and a million other little things. But I didn't remember to go and vote. I am so ashamed. This is even worse than the first election that I was able to vote in. I had just turned 18, and I was so excited that I got to vote. I studied all the candidates, all the issues, and marched ready with my list down to vote at my neighbors house. What a sense of pride I felt. Especially since I had really done my homework and was making such educated and well thought out choices. It wasn't until about a 1/2 hour after I returned from voting that I realized that I hadn't voted for a vice president, among other things. I realized in all of my nervousness and excitement I had only voted on one side of the ballot. How ridiculous i felt, but not as ridiculous as I feel now. And this is how I realized it. DAve walks in at 7:05pm and asks, "Did you vote?" In a panic, I ask when the polls close. Dave in his normal calm and cool manner replies, "At 7pm." UGH!!! a million times over. The only thing that would make me feel worse right now is if someone calls or comments and says that the polls were open until 8pm. In fact, please don't even tell me if they were. Poor Mitt. I am sure my one vote will have made all the difference. I think maybe I need to go to the doctor. I left my car running with the keys in all through church (ok and one other time this past week). JUst commit me now!!!!!!!
