Inspired by a colleague, I think I may offer mini stress treatments on Election Day!

I wasn't nervous at all about running 26.2 on little training.  This?  It has me uber nervous.

I was not nervous, but the past few days the anxiety over it has ramped up. Part of me is hoping it is just the news trying to get good ratings, but then who knows. Who knows who will actually come out and vote on election day, that is the hard part, so few people actually vote vs eligible voters, it is a crap shoot.

I cannot wrap my head around the fact that he could become president. I have not from the first day of his candidacy all those many months and months ago. I am also shocked at how he has not lost his shit in a while. We are lucky he has not been this composed the whole time, i am hoping it is too little too late. He is a disgrace to our nation and it would ruin our country. I cannot imagine what will happen to the stock market if he is elected.

I actually promised myself I wouldn't drink on weeknights this week because I feel like over the past couple of weeks I've been having a drink or 2 almost every night to relax but I think it was making me feel worse during the day. So tonight I just totally ate too much and binged on gummy candies.

I might need to take a media break until the election. I don't know if I'm capable of that, but all this prognostication is stressing me out.

In 2008 I took a radio break because I was going insane right before the election, but now, I dunno, I feel like I need to listen to the radio ALL THE TIME. Thank goodness I do not watch tv, I could not handle the ads.

I'm avoiding polls right now because I just can't handle it. There have been politicians I haven't liked before (GW, Romney),but no one I was so deeply afraid of having in charge of our country.

Agreed! Shit! If Romney was on the ballot, I could see myself voting for him in THIS election.

I just read the whole thread waiting to see if you would end up baking Tom in a cake? (How is this food?)

I just had to completely disengage recently. I can't look at 538 anymore and it doesn't seem worthwhile given how little faith the probability theorists have in their own ability to estimate the probabilities. I've voted and don't know anybody voting for Trump to try and talk to ... what else is left to do?

(I am bummed my dh just confirmed his work trip for next Tuesday. I really am going to turn myself inside out watching returns alone.)

Be glad you do not live in my town.  :'( All Trump fans. OUTSIDE of my town is different, but it is hard for me to remember that when everywhere i turn is a Trump sign. A handful of my very liberal friends are voting Stein or Johnson, the rest Clinton. If I have any friends voting Trump, they can no longer consider me their friend. Those are not my ethics, morals or ideals and I do not want to be friends with anyone who shares beliefs with Trump.
