President Obama


I am nearly speechless with emotion right now, but not...quite. I volunteered for the No on 8 campaign tonight and barely got over to a celebration party in time to hear our President Elect's speech. What beautiful words! I was overcome several times since the news broke; I am so excited, so hopeful, so filled with joy. I have tears in my eyes while I write this. I cannot remember the last time I cried because I was happy, and I did so several times tonight. I am trying to etch these moments into my memory so I can remember this night forever as a pivotal point in my life in and American history. I was there. I helped make it happen.
