Hehe, oh just about an ocean away :).

Fun, let's see.. well it's payday tomorrow so there's potential for lots of fun. Only scheduled fun for this week so far is a 4 hour tattoo sitting on Friday.

I switched my days so another gal in our office could go on a short trip, and now it doesn't look like they're going, but still leaving my days switched in case something changes and they can...so...long four day weekend for me!!

Hope your sitting goes well, and pain free. :D

@WelshVapour Just curious, when your vote to leave the EU came up, is it true that the query polling didn't reflect how the vote actually went??
I heard that reported this past week.
They said that for whatever reason, they thought that people didn't want to say that they were going to vote to *leave*.

It is true, though I don't believe the leave voters were hiding their opinion in any way. I never did.

It all came down to the undecided voters or those who just weren't for whatever reason polled, most likely the rural "no one cares how they vote" areas weren't even polled. That's the problem with polling only major political cities like London, Edinburgh and Cardiff.. you completely miss the masses of other counties who feel hard done by governing bodies whether that's EU or our own. Add all those small areas together and bam.. the major stay votes are out voted with no one even aware it was a possibility.

Good perspective. Hadn't even thought about the fact they would exclude areas or groups to poll/ask.

Was just curious because I've now heard a couple of times that while most major polls have Hillary ahead, most polls that use robo calls (where a computer calls vs. a live person) have Trump ahead.
They're wondering if people aren't willing to tell a *live* person that they're voting for him because he's so controversial.
They said some who plan to vote for him won't tell friends, family, or even their spouses. :laugh:

I just can't wait for the elections to be over with. :facepalm:

That's also possible I guess, there was huge stigma attached to voting leave - maybe people didn't want to tell another person they wanted to leave. The other side of that is.. Britain in itself isn't a hugely politically aware place, wouldn't surprise me that when asked by someone perceived to know more about the political landscape, people gave the answer they thought was expected of them.


I hate politics. [emoji23]

    Welp, guess I need to get moving...go hang upside down for a minute, and have some breakfast. :)
    Lori, I'm glad you posted that link to the teeter. With having back issues, I might have thought about ordering one but with also having middle ear issues, being upside down would be a big no-no! :)
