Voting is fun

Despite a... ahem... late night last night, I was up at 6:30 this morning to vote. Polls opened at 7am, and Chris and I were there at about 10 minutes to the hour. I ended up casting ballot number 59 for the precinct at about 7:15, then heading back to Chris' to eat pancakes and watch Fox News. It was hilarious!

I've realized in the past couple of weeks how much this election means to me. I'm excited and happy and proud to have voted, which aren't things I've felt for an election before. I can't imagine what this must feel like for a 70-year-old black American - it brings tears to my eyes.
