Ethan:
It’s mid-term Election Day – even here in
our little town. I’m only seven, so I’m
supposed to be too-young to be cynical about governments and elections; but let’s
not let that get in the way of having fun – at least here in the privacy of our
Magi archives! ;^)
Actually, I don’t want to go there at
all. We’ll have one more lesson on
elections tomorrow for the post-election wrap-up, but to be blunt, we ignore
what goes on in Washington D.C. whenever possible; and our so-called leaders
thankfully don’t do too much to mess up our lives here while playing their
power games there. I’m not suggesting
that we should get rid of governments entirely – just three-quarters of them or
more.
Maybe the Ascension of the Light will
include putting Mom and the Magi Council in charge of things, but then I’d hate
it if our little town became the Capitol of the world and we suddenly had to
deal with all of the political games here instead of in and around the current Capitol
cities of the world.
Moving along, we’ve had a quiet day around
here. School was followed by lab time;
our evening at home was all about work and studying with just a bit of election
monitoring; and now I’m going to bed before we know the final results because I
really don’t care whether the Democrats or Republicans are in charge of the
country for the next two years.
We did get to hear several good fairy tales
tonight, but while they all began with – “When I’m elected; I promise...” – we’ll
have to wait and see what happens next; since most of them are not likely to
have a happily ever after ending.
Okay, that ended up being cynical anyway,
but I couldn’t resist; and now it’s time to get some sleep.
Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
I had fun playing in the lab after school;
Ethan and I enjoyed the quiet night with Mom and Dad after that; and I’m going
to stay out of politics because I’m as cynical as my twin; and don’t need to
add more to his comments.
The temptation is there to add a few more
jokes, but I won’t; and will only comment on the elections if anything
truly-important to us happens as a result over the next day or two. That probably won’t happen; so if you really
want to read up on political current events; there are other places in the
archives to do that – though I honestly don’t know why you’d want to do that
for any reason other than as a sleep aid. ;^)
Sorry – that one just slipped out anyway!

This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live
from what is now my past!
