Town Meeting Day

I woke up this morning and realized... It's town meeting day! This just meant I couldn't sleep in like I wanted to, because I had to be at the station at 8:00 am. It was crazy busy in the station, all hands were on deck and everyone had a town to attend. Honestly I had no idea what to expect. I had never been to a town meeting before and wasn't quite sure how they worked. It was like I went into a time machine and traveled back to the 1800s where people voted by saying "I" and "Nay." They used a ballat for some votes and a hand raising for others, it was like something i'd never seen before and it was so interesting. I wish I could say that wasn't all that was interesting about it! It was pretty long and drawn out for me. When we were going to leave my designated town I found that my car was stuck in the icy snow! It was terrible, I didn't know how I was going to get out. Thanks to two of the nicest people I've ever met, I was pushed out of that dilemma and on my way back to the station. When I got back I was overwhelmed by the number of people trying to do stuff. Luckily I got right on a computer and typed up my story, grabbed a editor and got my entire piece busted out in about an hour. When I got home from my day, Jesse and I decided to go play racquet ball and grocery shopping. We're just about to eat dinner, tacos... mmmmm....
