3 Debates Down, 1 To Go...

Here's my take on the recent debates.
For the first Presidential debate, I was having a wonderful time with family and didn't hear or see a word of it.
For the VP debate, I was organizing the apartment, making dinner and enjoying a movie.
For the latest Presidential debate at Wash U, I was shopping, driving around, singing and eating dinner.

So, I am 3 for 3.
3 relaxing evenings with wonderful people - none of whom are politicians.
3 periods of time where I decided there was something more important I could be doing with my time.
3 debates that I haven't actually missed.

I've read quite a bit about what "happened" at these debates and what certain bloggers think of the "performances" at these debates, but I really don't care that much. I've found something else to do each time that will have a much longer lasting impression on my life than any words that any of these men could ever say.

Oh, I'm still opinionated and I still follow the election process, but I don't let it consume me...
