Four years ago when Bush won again, I stayed in bed all day out of grief.
Today, though, I am so happy I feel like bursting out into cliches! Change we can believe in! Morning in America! Tippacanoe and Tyler too! Give 'em Hell, Obama; I like Obama; I still like Obama; I'm just wild about Obama; In your heart, you know he's right; It's the economy, stupid. Keep cool and keep Obama; an Obama in time saves nine; You can count your Obama's now because they've hatched; It's an Obama night stand; as hot as Obama; busy as an Obama.
It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living. -Terry Pratchett

YAY for America! Djinn, i remember the foul mood of four years ago. you weren't the only one; i felt so much despair and lack of trust in our country. today, hope replaces all those feelings. YES WE CAN!
xo,quel
Though a bittersweet day for me (given California, Arizona, Arkansas, and Florida - but mostly California and my hopes for a wedding), if the presidential election hadn't gone this way, I don't think there is any way I could have faced today.
Hooray. And so the work begins/continues.
Isn't it awesome to feel like something grand is possible ... even probable?
I say yes.
