I hate speed bumps.
I made the good decision to take some vacation days this last week. I didn't do it for the election but it worked out that way. I don't have to go back to work until Tuesday. It has been nice to not have to listen to coworkers talk about it. I can watch some news and turn it off when I have enough. I live in a red state. My workplace is a mix of Trump supporters and immigrants that don't like him but don't talk about politics. When I go back to work, I will have to listen to all kinds of conspiracy theories about the election. Not looking forward to it.
