Mitt-Bama Style

Okay, thing I forgot to mention in yesterday's post?

I listened to Mitt Romney Style whilst voting for Mitt Romney.

I'm aware that the song is supposed to deter people from voting for him, but I totally jammed to it whilst filling in the circles anyway.

For those of you who have yet to watch it....

WATCH THIS FIRST

Then go here:


this is by far my favorite video of the moment.

had to buy the song on itunes cause it was stuck in my head after watching it like 20 times.
notice all the references?

go behind the scenes here:


Mitt Romney Style is much more catchy than Obama Style:

yeah, no.


while not as impressive as that one attempted to be these actors could totally pass for obama and michelle

yeah, that's mostly dancing and that's all. but they're dead on appearance-wise.


okay, i take it back, this one's pretty good

hey, romney's shady.


I don't remember what I was actually going to talk about today. Had 3 go-po volunteers come in at the same time for training. That was interesting. What else? Um, oh, finished two major homework assignments. Which means I can actually take time to pack for Vegas either tomorrow or Friday. Depending on which night Oldest Sister is taking me shopping. For clothes to wear to Vegas. And then we'll buy more in Vegas. But I don't plan on gambling excessively so I should be fine. I mean, I will, just attempt to keep it under a hundred.

Alright, that's all I got for today. Glad I'm done with the assignments. Just gotta post to a discussion board later and that's it for the ones due before Vegas.

And you got the song, well songs, of the week so I'm out.

Notice the lack of Voice ramblings? Not really impressed with the artists on either of these teams aside from Trevin, Adriana and Mackenzie. Oh well, another episode tomorrow.

Vegas countdown 3 days and counting.

Out.

this time baby i'll be bulletproof.

Well, today was interesting. Got to vote over lunch break. Thought I'd have to wait in line and it would take longer but it actually took longer to get lunch than it did to vote. The majority of my people won, except for the main one.

Out of the two rather....interesting choices I picked the one I thought would suck the least and lost. Just thinking that all these slogans of hope and change should actually bring about some.

But what do I know? Maybe he'll turn things around in these next four years.

It was interesting because everyone I talked to this week still didn't know who they were going to vote for for president.

Seemed like a tight race at the start but he won by a landslide. Just glad my other people won. I literally went through the entire sample ballot we hand out at work and looked through all of their standings plus facts on the amendments and bond issue. I used to be crazy obsessive about this kind of stuff and watch the coverage all day but lately I've just been swamped.

After voting my afternoon was dedicated to TAB stuff. They asked if we could have 2 meetings each month instead of 1 which must means I must be doing something right. Though I don't think I could handle 2 meetings. I barely have time to put stuff together for 1.

After work I headed out to see the boyfriend. We went to Wreck-It Ralph then watched the election coverage. Good kids movie, loved the random retro character cameos. Scale of Awesome puts it at about 6/10. Which is just because it really is a kids movie but it did have its moments.

Loved Jane Lynch as the badass chick leader that looked exactly like her. Then you got John C. Reilly and Sarah Silverman, etc. A lot of big names so people get the incentive to go and see it.

As I skipped out on tonight that means homework tomorrow so I'll have time to pack for Vegas later in the week. Woohoo Vegas! Countdown continues with 4 days to go.

Now I'm gonna crash cause I'm literally falling asleep while I type this.

I'll count the typos tomorrow.


Bulletproof - Melanie Martinez


love her version better than the original. no surprise as to who won this battle.


yes i know i'm boring today. i promise to have something interesting to talk about tomorrow. pull out the quote books or see what i posted on that day last year.

you'll find what's left of us in a cloud of dust on hwy 4

It says 11:50 but I won't tell you what time it actually is.

I counted only 10 cars still driving as I left the boyfriends house, but things picked up when I got closer to my apartment.

Husker-nation is full of partiers, especially after a big win like tonight.

And on homecoming.

Did I mention we had a major come from behind victory?

Second biggest in Husker history?

Wisconsin went down after leading back after the first quarter.

Alternate jerseys for homecoming of awesomeness.

It was amusing cause Adidas designed Wisconsin's as well, and since we're both red it was more like black with red vs white with red.

I DVR'd it so I'll probably turn it back on and fall asleep watching.

We watched bits of it at Applebees but the rest with his parents so I had to withhold my screaming at the TV.

It runs in the family, though I'm not quite as bad as my brother. He paces. And used to have this weird superstition that the stuffed helmet (when you squeeze it it sings the fight song) had to be facing a certain direction or he would change it if we started losing or I don't know, it was amusing.

Anyway, it was fun cause I got to hang out with the boyfriend and the best friend. I got chicken and shrimp - it was rockin'.

After the game we finished Back to the Future part 2 and got all the way through number 3. Which is why it's so late, and I should be sleeping but I'm still wired from driving.

Oh well, I'll turn on the game, lay down and close my eyes. Sleep will take me eventually.

But in the meantime - funny story. This chick that's running for office called me today cause apparently we're neighbors. I of course was at work so I didn't answer.

But that's weird right?

Sadly I'm not as big into the elections this year and am not sure who I'll vote for. There was a time - once upon a time, though I blame government class - that me and my friends were all over who was running and why they're good or bad and it just so happened to be an election year and the first year we could vote.

Anyway, we had to pick a candidate and advertise for them by hanging up posters and all that. We chose Green Party, go Nader!

Song you know but forgot you knew it:

Bye Bye - Jo Dee Messina


i find it highly amusing that the "ralph nader" tag already existed. may have to check that one out.
