I didn’t vote on Tuesday
November 10, 2006One of my main goals as a new father, aside from teaching my son how to pipet accurately and all that, is to avoid withdrawing into my little world of lab experiments, diaper changes, and road races, with minimal connection to people and issues outside of this sphere.
That’s the goal, yet the withdrawal is already underway. This week, I was so preoccupied with work stuff and home stuff that I forgot to vote.
I can forgive myself for this; in fact, I already have. But I need to do better in the future.
Shame on you!But at least you didn't screw anything up, at least in my opinion.ALL statewide and important local elections (Senator, Representative, initiatives) turned out the way I would have voted if I had the right to vote. In a few years I hopefully have US citizenship….
