2 more days to go thewave.gif until the election is over - i have been completely consumed and obsessed with this election - it is really starting to annoy me how psycho i am about it and i can't stop thinking about it LOL

 

regardless of who you are voting for (my intention in starting this thread is not to start a political debate), if you are obsessed where are you getting your news? this is the worst part of my obsession - i just keep adding more blogs, websites, news orgs and pundit coverage to my already long list girl_werewolf.gif

Wow, we just had a candidate come to town for a last-minute speech. They had it 2 blocks from our house Sat night. ALL night Friday night they spent setting up, testing the sound system (!!!), letting the bands practice, etc. I'll be glad when this is all over!

So many of the channels that we have are American though, so of course we're exposed to a lot of it. The Palin/Biden debate was the same night as ours... and I watched the American one! Oops!

My mom and I chat about the U.S. election a lot, even though we can't vote (although I'd love to!). We'll be having a mini election party Tuesday night.

My mom is a little more obssessed than I am; she has notifications on google any time there is a new hit on the election posted. OMG... she knows EVERYTHING. And as a writer, she researches everything to death as well... she's managed to dig up some interesting (and amusing) points!

I am totally obsessed with the election and so is FI! He swears he's buying a bottle of rum for Election Night, hehe. I have been phonebanking from home for the past couple of weeks and have even donated a couple of times-- something I've never done before.

 

Alyssa, one of my faves is FiveThirtyEight.com: Electoral Projections Done Right. They have all kinds of stats and polling analysis on there, and also have a team traveling the country reporting on the campaign. Great resource.

 

I am anxious for it to be all over though!rockon.gif

OMG, I am completely consumed by it. I'm already planning on putting our 4th of July (Flags, ect.) decorations outside our house on Tuesday to show our pride and enthusiasm!

 

The worst part is I am getting induced on Wednesday and I can't seem to decide what I'm most excited about! LOL... Ok, I guess I know, but still. This is going to be the best week ever!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
