Today my esteemed spouse and I voted at the local library. It took a grand total of ten minutes and probably would have been only 6 or 7 except for all the bond issues and state Constitutional Amendments and judge retention items.
I did other stuff today too, that was a lot harder:
Bought a replacement sink faucet at a big box retailer. Nightmare, no assistance, not even any cash registers, WTF. Never going back there, Big Jo's Hardware has real people working there. Worth the extra drive. Sheeesh.
Scheduled maintenance for our heating system. Comedy of call-backs and unintelligible voicemails and unavailable time slots and wrong address transcriptions, but eventually we got something for (we hope) next Friday.
Tried to drop off a jacket at the Costurera Alteraciones to get a zipper replaced. Traffic was bad, parking was bad, and in spite of two (2) large neon "OPEN" signs in the window, when I went to the door the guy inside shook his head and pointed to a placard saying they'd be open tomorrow.
Also it was a step-up day for my working out, which was a bit challenging, but also rewarding.
Still, voting is just about the easiest thing I did today.
GIVE IT A TRY!
encouragingly,

And I have been marveling at how long it takes to do other things that used to take 3 minutes. I blame cell phones. Now that everyone has one, you can't call anyone on the phone.
