I voted

Today I'm frustrated.

I'm dismayed because of some people's successful efforts to intentionally misinform voters keep the masses ignorant. But at the same time, I'm not surprised. Not surprised at all. Why should I expect anything to change?

The roads were the big issue this time around. I have an awful lot to say about that, but not here.

I voted. Because I can.


Paper Heart Camera: self portrait (mood)

Also, a reminder for my friends who like to play along with Facing Myself, the linky will go up Saturday. I'll be in a better mood by then, unless I have to drive into town.

You're cute even when you're bummed!
How long are you going to keep the "facing myself" dealy going? Can't wait to click on the link Saturday. Would love to play along sometime. This month is not good for me. NaNo and all.

LOVE this.

I voted, too. Seemingly for nothing. It seems like nothing I vote for ever wins.

Great photo...you're so right.

Love everything about this Jess! Your (too beautiful) face, the "mood," composition...everything. I love your creativity! :-)

And to answer your question...no, still to lazy to put on that 50mm. That was the ole' 24-70 - LOL! ;-)

Karli said...

I totally just laughed out loud (LOUDLY) at your comment - hee hee! I was dying! I wonder what your kiddos' infraction could possibly be... LOL! :-)

I also voted, because I can. Simple. I get very disenchanted with politics sometimes, but I will never cease to be grateful for democracy and my right to vote. I think I accidentially wrote a small novel about this along with my self portraits that I posted a few days ago... I'll link up tomorrow!

what a great brooding self portrait. Amen to the voting- I voted too and tried not to bee too disheartened when I heard the stunning outcomes for my state.
