Nov 5th will henceforth be known as the Day of Basking

how can you not love today, when an actual WashPo headline is - History Gives Way to Its Future: Win suggests the country might be in a gravitational pull toward a rebirth.

oh man. wow. wow! just... wow. if i'm not careful, i'm going to end up going totally Hogle in my Obama love, so I'll just let U Street do the talking. (and, on second thought, let's throw in some scary child-chasing robots, too)

it's a good day to be alive!

and just for good measure.. a totally gratuitous picture of my future ex-husband after he voted.
