bottoms up, independent out

back in college -- a whole four years ago -- i registered to vote as independent, a move that showed i didn't affiliate with any party. i was above that.

flash to 2007, and i can't vote in the primary without being democrat or republican, and there's no point in being republican in this city. so i caved. as of, well i guess today, though it won't be official until the county offices receive my form, i have changed parties, and i'm a democrat. not so much proud of it, but at least my vote isn't thrown away.

april 16 is the deadline to get forms in, so if you aren't registered or you want to change your party -- pick up a form at any post office, public library or state liquor store or go here. Wouldn't be cool if we got a free drink if we went to the liquor store to register ... maybe i'll try that later...
