Election Day

It's Election Day here in the U.S. and I urge everyone who are eligible to vote to go out and practice their civic duty. I hope this presidential election will be less controversial than the last one, and I'm hoping we'll have a clear winner so as not to bring a legitimacy question to this presidency. Go out and vote!

Ha! October came and went and I didn't have a single post. I'm not going to say that I don't have any blogworthy news to share (because there's plenty!!!), let me just say that I don't want to burden you all with my anxiety about certain issues. I guess we're still on a need to know basis here and right now I'll just keep private stuff private. O intriga, di ba?!

My Dad left for Cleveland today. Not to vote, mind you, but to visit my other siblings in Ohio and Virginia. He arrived from Manila last October 11 and has spent some time with me in Sacramento and Pomona. The rest of his stay was spent with our relatives in San Diego. He'll be back here in Cali in December to attend a wedding, then he might go visit Florida after that. He's scheduled to fly back to Manila after the holiday. It was great to see and spend some time with my Dad after eight years. Maybe in May the whole family will come for a visit. Kumpleto na naman kami!

Didn't I say the San Diego Chargers are going to the playoffs? Well, halfway through the season, their record is 5-3 and it looks like the rest of their schedule is pretty light. Only the Colts and the Broncos have a winning record among their next opponents. They have a great chance of winning their division and even sweeping the remaining games. Wow, a 13-3 record would be awesome. But first, let's beat the Saints next week.
