The Importance of Election Day

 I wake up to the sound of SRV that my phone sings to me.

It's early, it's my day off, why did I set my alarm so early?

Election Day! It's Election Day!

After today we will know who will go and who will stay.

After today there will be no more phone calls, propaganda, no more anything, it's Election day!

I head to the shower, I am starved.

I want eggs with bacon, waffles with too much butter on them, I want sausages with syrup, and pancakes with jam, pancakes with jam, pancakes with jam!

I want it all.

I head to the kitchen and begin stirring and mixing, blending and kissing my finger tips when I get them covered in jam.

Chopping and dicing, smearing and slicing, I am finally done!

Why did I wake so early today?

I must have been dreaming of pancakes; yes, dreaming of pancakes with jam.
