obama!

in 2004, i voted for john kerry, because he was better than the alternative (which i think has been more than proven in the last four years).  however, this year, i voted for barack obama and the emotion behind that vote is overwhelming.  i just can't believe how much faith i have in that man and how much hope he has stirred up in this country.  after feeling so lost and angry at the government, i can finally feel that change is coming, and that is incredible.

so, now all there is to do is stress-eat cookies and try not to panic about the results tonight.
