I have worked completely through my local ballot for tomorrow. I have some idea of how to vote in every contested race. Not just the big ones in the news, but also for all the local and judicial candidates.

The extra hour
Note the time stamp. Most Americans just “fell back” and are getting an extra hour of sleep. A few are up because it is their job to provide essential services (e.g. police, firefighting) just like on other nights. A very few would be asleep, but are up precisely because of falling back. I am one of them.
I saw it coming

Bad News
My mother is in the hospital again. She was feeling dizzy and weak yesterday and called 911. So far my brother Raven and his family, who live just a couple miles from her in Colorado Springs, have been visiting her and passing along news. My sister and her husband will be coming down from Denver. No word yet on when I will have to fly out, but I am going to pack a bag to be ready.
