Are you registered to vote?

I'm trying to stay busy and earn an extra buck or two. The next couple of weeks I'll be working with our county election doing early voting. We went into some nursing homes today and had fun. One lady seated herself with us and said "you all look professional. We can beat you anyway." She thought we were professional travelling bingo players and we were about to get whooped.

Tiny was a little woman who was 102 years old. I asked her why her mother would name her that as a baby. She said because she was the smallest baby any of them had ever seen. She plays bingo too. Hey, when they broke out the Little Debbie's I was ready to play bingo myself.

One couple shared a room. The wife declared she was a republican but her husband yelled that she was a democrat. They argued until she said "o.k. if you say so."

I got a job today with the 2010 Census Bureau. That will begin after my election work and last me about 8 weeks. I reckon I should have a few more stories to share over the next few weeks.

  1. The census job should keep you busy! Congratulations on that opportunity. I hope you enjoy it. The census counts occur at the begining of every decade.
