So That Happened

Holy shit.

I met my friend Pete to watch the results at Costello's, a bar just a couple of blocks away. I held it together pretty well until I saw Jesse Jackson in tears. But then, I cry at insurance commercials.*

I am wary because I think the expectations are too high and too many, but for today and probably for a while I am just enjoying the feeling of being proud of my country for the first time in a long fucking time.

Do you cry at dog food commercials yet? Cause that's my indicator of patheticness. "Oh, that sweet, stiff old golden" *sniffle* *sob*.

No--but I choke up at that Sarah McClachlan commercial about pet adoption, and the David Duchovny one about the dog food company that donates to help homeless dogs.

I will make no apologies! I LIKE DOGS OK SO SUE ME.
