Election night

Well it's over.  The big midterm election is over.  Some won, some lost and, I suspect, life will go on.  Some of my choices won, some didn't. I am not devistated.  In fact I am actually quite excited.  Do you realize that we will not have to listen to a political commercial until the 2020 presidential campaign?  Those ads probably won't start until mid 2019.  So I figure we have at least six blissful months before the barage begins again.  There really ought to be a law that candidates can't start advertising until two months before the election.  Sadly, I'm guessing that falls into the "don't hold your breath" catagory.  Ah, well.  On a happier note, I finally tried out the steak at Ruth's Crist Steak House this evening.  A friend discovered that if you eat at the bar during happy hour (4-6 pm) some meals are half price.  I had a lovely little steak with crab, asparagus and Bernaise sauce for $13.  Of course by the time I added a glass of wine, coffee and a shared salad it wasn't cheap, but still quite comparable to other steak places in town, and yes, the meat was very good.  I was actually quite mellow by the time I got home to listen to election results.
