#44

It still doesn't feel quite real to me yet. And holy shit, what an acceptance speech.

I have a doctor appointment today for a physical. It's been 14 years since I had one and I'm getting a wee bit nervous. I guess there's no helping it--I'll be pissing in a cup just a few hours from now, and not even getting paid for it like some people.

Election 2008

I am so proud of you today, America. When I think of all of you, lining up in droves at the polls, taking a stand against apathy and wearing your "I Voted" stickers with pride, it makes me so happy to live here. Go country where I was born! We're possibly quite close to Number One!

The doc told me that she became a citizen after 24 years specifically so she could vote in this election.

At City Hall, where we voted, there was a mock-election with polling booths just for kids, and little "I voted" stickers just for them. D'awwww.

Off to lurk on CNN til it's over with, I reckon. I don't want to miss tonight.
