Well I'm not worried.

If all goes wrong, I have a friend in Oaxaca.

If the Republicans win, you better have a friend in Jesus.

Who may or may not be from Oaxaca.

The polling during the conventions was just ridiculously misleading based on the way Gallup actually conducts their polls. Give everything another week. Then look at the numbers.

@mizzchele - http://www.fivepound.com.au/lounge.jpg ... I have a couch :D

Obviously I am meant to be doing (not entirely unrelated) uni work and not taking photos of my house.

@matt - awwww, a comfy couch and a space heater! pretty much all I need in life, aside from the occasional watering and maybe some avocados once in a while. :)

Oh, and I can do your dishes and bake cookies, too!

@mizz - Damn. What a shame the numbers are looking so good.

Im not worried yet. If worse comes to worse, there's always the option of living on the sea like a pirate. I'll get a parrot and an eye patch and everything.

I was made for sea life. Count me in.
