Excused Absences

In the last three hours, I've gotten three e-mails from students telling me they won't be in class tomorrow, for election-related reasons.

Undoubtedly one or more of them are scamming me (I am, after all, the one who kept bringing voter-registration cards to class, and the one who has been haranguing them at least once a week since then to vote). But I'm just going to accept that, and give them my cheerful blessing.

This is why election day should be a national holiday!

Don't tell anyone but I just canceled my class today. And voting was heavy this morning were I am...

When it comes to Election Day, I feel as though most, if not all, bets are off.

(STESSLY is my word.)
