The deed is done

I went, I picked up my pencil, I voted. It was definitely busier than usual, not that that is hard when it comes to council elections. I ended up walking to the polling station with my next-door neighbour who was leaving on the same errand, and there were other people turning up at the same time as we arrived (we put on a spurt and got there first).

And now we wait. I am not staying up tonight; I have to work tomorrow, and in particular I have to be alert tomorrow afternoon. That said, I can't imagine that the quality of decisions made is going to be very impressive. Everyone's going to be either giddy with relief or despondent.

I am going to try to sleep, though I'm not sure how successful I'll be. And I'm already exhausted. I wish I'd had the foresight to book tomorrow off...

I've got some Nytol and I'm going to use it. Normally 1/4 of the normal dose is enough to give me a better night's sleep when I've got a stinking cold, but I may up it. I don't have to be capable of coherent speech until 11.

Hmmmm, I have drowsy Benylin which contains the same ingredient as Nytol, but it never really makes me that drowsy!
