I am not sure how regular I’ll be about updating for the next few days. I should be back on Sunday or Monday, I hope. I’m just kind of wrecked by anticipatory anxiety and by some stuff going on with Cordelia, all leading to a migraine and to exhaustion.
I don’t have any help with getting to and from the recount site, so I’m not really sure what to do about that. I was going to arrange for a subsidized cab, but things with Cordelia meant that I missed the window to schedule that in advance for tomorrow. I might still be able to get one, but the timing would be iffy for the trip there. The bus would be more reliable and cheaper, but it would be forty minutes including a transfer and trying to find the right stop and the right place once I got the right stop. A regular cab would get me there more reliably close to the right time, but would cost an arm and a leg.
I’m also concerned about getting there with a long wait until the doors open. They didn’t tell us how early we’ll be able to get into the building. I really don’t want to be standing in the cold for forty minutes, waiting for someone to let me in. There isn’t any place easy to get to where I could wait, either. The bus option I’m looking at would get me there about fifteen minutes before the recount starts, and that seems like a reasonable time to arrive in terms of the doors likely being open.
There are a dozen things I ought to have done today but that I couldn’t manage because my brain wouldn’t work or because I couldn’t get Scott to answer texts or emails. (I’m feeling sufficiently migraine type crappy that getting up and asking him seems insurmountably difficult.) I still need to make three business phone calls— ordering books for Christmas presents, scheduling an eye exam for myself, and finding out if my preferred hotel for the visit to my parents has pet free room options (they welcome pets. I’m very allergic. The other two hotels are abysmally terrible).
