so who all's voting in this recall election? is california a total mockery or what?! i'm sure all the other 49 states are just shaking their heads, tsking at us. "those dumb californians." whatever, i'm so not into all this political bs. i know i should care about who is running the state i live in, but i don't. when i turned 18, i did my duty as an american citizen and registered to vote. well, then i moved away for college, and kept forgetting to get an absentee ballot sent to me, thus never voted in my life (and i didn't care enough about the city i was living in to change my district). then i received a letter in the mail saying that i've been "unregistered" due to my lack of participation in the last however-many elections. whoops. i tried. now i have no desire to re-register. i'm just that lazy. :P

okay, last night there was a TINY earthquake, like 3.9 or something, and the news people can't stop talking about it!! what's the big freakin' deal. call me when it's a BIG one, 6.0 at least. scary thing, i live right over the san andreas. and my parents live along the hayward fault. i think the hayward fault is WAAAAY overdue for a large quake. yipes. let's hope these little ones keep happening to lessen the blow of the BIG one. ugh...*flashbacks of loma prieda*
