Mixed Emotions...


YAY OBAMA!!!!

I'm very excited that history was made last night and I'm happy to say that I was a part of it.
I'm also happy that the votes all went 'my way' as far as Questions 1, 2, and 3 are concerned.

Unfortunately, I'm not so thrilled with some of the results across the country.

Anti-gay laws were passed in Arizona, Arkansas, and Florida. Gross.
In addition, although it hasn't been confirmed by the press as of right now, it looks like the big one, Proposition 8 in California (the prop. to ban gay marriage) is going to pass as well.
Yuck.

It makes me very sad and yes, I cant help but take it personally.
I get VERY angry when I talk about it, so I'm not going to get into it.
I'm going to try and remain focused on the positive things going on around me and not allow those hate-filled people to get me down.
To those of you living in the affected states - keep fighting and stay positive!!!
Or move to Massachusetts. :-)

In other news, I'm going to see a show tonight!! YAY for live theatre!
I'm seeing the David Mamet play 'November' - which, as you could guess, is a political comedy.
My good friend Will is in it, and I'm SURE it'll be great.

Happy Wednesday...and keep smiling.
