Hey everybuggy!

I'm back home, I voted! Hey America, guess what? For the first time ever, the candidate I voted for looks like me! It was a terrific feeling, even if I had to get up at ass o'clock to do so. I made the mistake of commenting once or twice on the sky getting lighter and Mr. R said,"Yes, we call that sunrise..." Yeah, laugh it up, funny boy. So, the Fam voted, and no matter what the outcome, we were part of history today.

I am unhappy with the voting here in Mississippi, but I finally was able to actually vote. Hopefully, it will count for something.

And I know that I'm not black, but voting for Obama was a terrific for me too: I am not nor ever will be an old white man.

I'm glad it was great for you too--he's for every one of us, after all. To folks like me, whose childhood began in a legally segregated nation, it's just an incredible, mind-boggling thing. Lots of us never believed we'd see a day like this, but really, it's a huge day and a giant step forward for *all* of us.

*HUG* Love you!

I know! I'm young, but even I know that women weren't allowed to vote until this century. It's bizarre to see a woman in such a position and feel that you should vote for her because she's a woman, and have to remind yourself that she's a vapid, horrible human being that cares nothing about other women.

Hopefully, Obama gets 8 years in, and then a qualified and appropriate woman will run.
