It’s a tired day here in the CatBox.  Yesterday, WWWendy and I had lots to do.  We set refills for pain meds and scheduled my next infusion for Friday the 15th.  WWWendy picked up Subway sandwiches.  I’m enjoying them, but I trust Mitch (ours, not BBBMMM) will confirm that any NJ denizen knows what comes from Subway isn’t a sub. I’m listening to election day in GA.  I look forward to good news.  Tomorrow I may have no more than a Personal Update, depending on how much time I need to spend watching  Hawley’s Hookers trying to steal the White House AGAIN.  Tuesday is Flush Your Republicans Day.  If they smell like shit, there’s a reason for that.<\/font><\/p>\n

From Daily Kos<\/a>: <\/font>The polling says the runoff races for the two Senate seats in Georgia are tied, and if the polls don\u2019t say that, they\u2019re likely wrong. We don\u2019t need a poll to tell us what we just saw weeks ago in the November general election: Georgia is balanced on a razor\u2019s edge, and the victor will be the party that best gets its voters to the polls. How\u2019s that for a hot take? <\/p>\n

But of course Georgia has been voting for weeks, and as such, we have some hints as to what\u2019s coming when the votes are counted.  <\/p>\n
