Holy crap, we have a President-Elect who can speak in full and complete sentences.

Who is gracious and humble, even in victory.

It's weird, I used to think my parents were weird when they talked about how they felt about John F. Kennedy. I got that he was a great man and a great president, but not the rest of it.

Last night, I got it. Boy, did I get it.

It is the hope and belief that as a nation, we can correct our course. It is the faith and perseverence that we will come together and be better than our parts, be better than our past. It is the simple fact that at the end of the day, the grand experiment has yet to fail and we still are a nation of ideals, of liberty, and equality.

This is the United States of America that I believe in. This is the nation I love.

I don't have any more words. The feeling is too big.

And the Mad Model's favorite. Gotta love ripped stockings.

Today has been a good, good day.

We have a new President that doesn't make me want to gnaw my arm off.

Everything seems possible.

No limits today, folks. None whatsoever.

So what shall we do?

I'm doing okay on my wordcount for NaNo. Anyone else here doing it? I appear to be the only one (barring one other) of my current NaNo peeps who's actually doing this year. Would like to have some other buddies.

Also finished the first Artist's Way book. Not as much of an ass kicking as I was expecting, but it got me back on track. Now to Vein of Gold and for more kicking.

Because the work has to get done.

Because if a man with the middle name of Hussein can be President, I really don't have a damn excuse for not chasing what I want with both hands.
