aka, Election day, and oh god, the ballot boxes open in an hour. There's something weird in the pit of my stomach, and I honestly, this is embarrassing, honestly cannot tell whether it's:

1) Elections nerves - stress both over the results, and over the fact that I'm still not 100000% sure who I'm voting for, and the fact that I won't be 100000% certain I made the right choice until we know the final outcome, and the elections-heavy facebook feed and the fact that I have nothing to contribute to the discussion.

2) Hunger. The company I work for has a running group who train once a week, suitable for both beginners and advanced runners, and friends have been on me for a while to join, and I finally tried it out today. So I basically exercised for the first time in years, and afterwards we went out for - I kid you not - seaweed health smoothies, and then I got home for dinner, and I had either not realized or I had forgotten how exercising makes you hungry. I don't remember if that used to happen to me (you know, ten years ago, when I exercised a little?), or if it's just something that happened to me now, but I was hungry, and ended up eating half a pizza. Which now, four hours later and currently at 1AM, is proving to have been not enough. Maybe? Unless this REALLY IS JUST ANXIETY ugh self KNOW YOUR BODY.

3) idk this could just be a stomach thing that eating won't even help and it'll be gone in 24 hours.

I guess the bottom line is: I worked out a little (yay! though it was hard gah I hate sportsing) and I am nervous and I am also super tired. I am very, very thankful that Election Day in Israel is a day off, so I don't have to go to work, and can just spend the day experiencing daylight and civic duties.

Who even knows what'll happen, gah. Things I envy, in this of all elections: a two-system party. It can suck, but it makes things so easy in the voting booth.
