Is anyone else here distracted by is anyone else here distracted by this election?

Posted on 11/01/2016 11:35:08 AM PDT by MNDude

Ugh! I have been completely distracted and almost obsessed with what's going to happen next in this election with WikiLeaks, etc.

I keep on checking out freerepublic.com or Twitter.

I can't wait until this election is over with so I can get back with my normal life. Is anyone else here at all distracted by this election and all the news about it?

No, not at all.

I will be hitting F5 on this thread every five seconds until you reply. Like I do on many threads here. All day when I should be working.

Here here. It’s compounded by fact that I live in VERY LIBERAL area and have very few TRUMP supporting friends and even those who do aren’t as “high stakes” about it the way I am...

I’ve been working at home at night to insure I don’t fall behind due to some slacking during the day :-).

I kind of work for myself and the people I do work with also work ridiculous, crazy, non-constant schedules like myself ... but this particular crazy-crazy schedule happens to me every single damn election :-).

Today I’m watching the Elizabeth Warren dropping Hillary from Twitter thread personally ... something huge is bubbling up ... I cannot wait to see what this is (I’m just hoping I am not repulsed and sickened by it).

I'm loving this.

I found myself assigned some kind of probationary status at FreeRepublic a few weeks ago after some heated conversations, but it's all good now. LOL.

My dog died Saturday. The email issue is helping my mom and me with our sadness. Sometimes a distraction is welcome ;)

Me. I have barely left the computer since Friday. We have eaten too much take out, I haven’t worked out, my house is a mess, the laundry is piling up, my homeschooled son has not had my full attention, etc.

Your post on this thread is distracting me from the rest of this thread, which is distracting me from all the other threads.

Oh yes! House is a mess, dogs get run around only 1 block instead of the normal hour outing, haven’t seen friends in a week and work - what work!

Come on Wikileaks and o’Keefe, post already!

Yeah, it's been bad.

One day last week, I got up at 3:45 (it was the day Kim Dot Com was rumored to be leaking the emails). I am the kind of person, once awake, I am up. I resisted checking my phone until about 4:15--then it was all over I was up for the day--dragging. Another day, I checked Twitter while putting gas in my car. I am not getting anything done.

Download the free 21 day Trial copy of Harmony Toon Boom and amuse yourself learning to do 2D animation.

Trust me, that will detract you away from the election. You will find that you only have to check FR every 10 minutes or so rather than your normal 15 seconds.

Works for me.

Yes. Guilty as charged, m'Lud!

I blew every To Do item on my list last weekend when this thing really started to roll in favor of sitting in front of a computer. I regret the time it takes me to commute from work to home and log in the minute the door closes behind me. When I go to the pilot relief tube, please, somebody intervene!
