I have my absentee too, but I’m going in person. Don’t trust the mail-in this year:(
Not sure what state you are in but sometimes if you request an absentee ballot, they wont let you vote at the polling station, or at least you might wind up with a provisional ballot (which are counted last, if at all). If you requested an absentee ballot you might be better to send it in. Check for your local rules.
