November 2nd, 2004
I know it’s obvious what today is but I wanted to put up one more reminder. PLEASE GO OUT AND VOTE. A while back an email circulated about the women who fought for our right to vote. Several of them were threatened with being institutionalized, while others were jailed and beaten. Some didn’t survive the latter. Not one of these women gave up the fight. I felt ashamed after reading about their struggles. I felt ashamed that as women we don’t take that privilege more seriously. I hear so many people say it doesn’t matter who wins the election, BUT it does. Take time out of your busy schedules today to vote. If you won’t do it for yourselves, then do it for the women who died to give us the right to vote.
I’m stepping off my soapbox now.
I did my duty!
by cece November 2nd, 2004 at 8:59 pmGood girl! That’s what I like to hear.
I did my duty too and made triple my word count today. Yeah!!! I’m so happy. Now all I have to do is write another 545 words and I’ll have met my weekly goal. Woo Hoo! I just might be able to get those edits done and prevent the WORD ball from dropping in the process.
