I'm off work today so the day is off to a good start. I actually like the idea of working 2 days then having a day off between the next 2 days. It'd allow for doing errands and stuff when places are not busy, for once.
I've always liked making wishes when I've caught 11:11 on the clock, so today's date of 11/11 makes this a doubly good day. Friday is the 13th, which I also love, so maybe the next couple days will be good. Hopefully.
I've been obsessing over this all week, but I am just so negatively impacted by standard time mentally. The sun was almost fully under the horizon by 4:30pm today, and we still have a month and a half to go before the daylight time increases. I hope we get to stay with daylight savings time forever soon.
I'm too tired to keep thinking.
I actually was really pleasantly surprised at how the election results turned out yesterday. Texas elected their first Latina governor and the first democrat in 40 years. Georgia elected the first Black female governor ever. New Mexico elected the first Indigenous female governor ever. Lots of Senate and House seats flipped from red to blue. Same with governor positions. It's wild.
I know this isn't much but small wins are still wins. Whether all these people will actually do something or not is still up in the air. I really hope that we do see some good movement towards getting far, far away from fascism, and anti-scientific health information, and racism, and everything else that the past 10 years have completely unleashed from underneath the rocks it was all rotting under.
