Hi all! Have to work in morning....had a tangled week and a worse one ahead...could be that my heart is a little brusied
Seriously had tears in my eyes last night.
I am 38 years old...I've been involved in every political campaign since 1986 paid or unpaid which constitutes far more than half my life, until this year.........and last night was the first time I saw someone that was not white, middle aged and male claim a major victory in a Presidential contest. I just savored it. It may not last...it probably won't but damn...last night watching that crowd in Obama's HQ....jaded and cranky as I am -- I could not help but feel mildly touched by the optimism, tenor and energy that radiated from the crowd.
Almost took up the Democratic GAIN offer to book a cheap flight to NH until Tuesday.
On the up side three more months and I am out of debt -- 2 if I cut back on, well everything.
