I feel like going to the bar today. If I was childless, I would spend the day at the bar watching all the results come in. There's just something about the camaraderie you feel when you're with a bunch of people, whether you're watching election results or the Twins winning a ball game. Everyone cheers at the same time, you make friends with the guys at the table next you, and you over tip the bartender because you're in a good mood and he snuck ya a free drink or two. I guess in this case you need to make sure other people voted the same way you did, but I imagine there's at least ONE person in that bar that feels the same way you do. Today's a big deal. History will be made either way. Get out there and enjoy it. Say you were there. Make a new friend or two. Have a story to tell your grand kids.

I'm there! At a place called "The Bad Waitress." People everywhere with laptops...and enthusiastic conversations. OK it's kind of early and people aren't really drinking yet...and I do have to get home for the bus...but it's nice for a while anyway!
I wanna go somewhere fun! Totally the reason I am volunteering this afternoon. Just cool to be involved!!!
History indeed. I even DVR'd the acceptance speech last night just so the kids could watch it. Wow, history indeed.
