I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords...
So, yesterday was fun. Didn't you have fun? I sure did.
Work was a funeral yesterday. Everyone trudged around with these 1000-mile stares. A couple of us went to the gym at lunch to work off some anger. Surprisingly, it worked. After the first ten minutes the endorphins kicked in, and my feelings of suicidal angst toned down to a mild incapacitating depression.
Today I'm feeling better. We had the first frost of the year, and the walk to work was enchanting. A pond filled with frost-tipped cattails is a good tool to restore calm. Like most blue state Americans today, I'm going to get on with my life, do my job, and live the way I want to live. That'll piss 'em off.

Why was work a funeral yesterday? At my library most of us were having a blast. (Probably because most of us are Republicans though...)
I won't gloat. I respect your sadness. The Democratic Party has become a regional party out of touch with broad regions like the south and the mountian west. It will have to find ways to appeal to voters in these regions or it will never win a national election again and it will continue the steady dive of seats in Congress. I hope it recovers. This country needs two strong parties. (Or maybe a third strong one too.) Keep your chin up. Life goes on.

Hey Erica!
Maybe you should move up north to a country which is much more progressive and liberal (we even have a political party called that!); CANADA! No, we're not perfect, but sometimes it sure seems that way (even the UN thinks so!). It's always fun to visit your country, but I feel a sense of relief when I cross that border back to my home...hmm, wonder why??
Who do you want to piss off? And why?

Thanks to the Melinda for her reasonable and kind words.
Thing is, life doesn't go on. People are going to die because of this election.
We're mired in a bloody takeover of another country. No one knows how many civilians our troops have killed. The rate of troop casualties raises daily. No one knows how many people have been infected with AIDS as the result of our nostalgic abstinence-only policies at home and abroad. No one knows how many gay and lesbian people are hurt, beaten, denied civil rights and killed in our own country by people who believe, with the support of this government, that homosexuality makes people deserve less than human treatment.
I was hoping for something better. I was hoping that as a country we would try to change these things. We didn't and I am sad. I respect Melinda's opinions and recognize the truth in what she says, but I wish things had gone the other way.
Sorry, just wanted to see if this post will be removed too.
