Thank God That's Over.

Or, the only thing that could make me want to go through an election night is nine months of presidential campaigning.

Don't get me wrong, I love politics, the political process, voting, our democracy, yeah.  But my nails are chewed down to nubs.  Four years ago, I was trying to cheer for Obama and my country while crying for my childhood home, California at the same time.  This morning, I am all smiles as the hateful misogynistic Republican senators and house members went down, three states voted to legalize same-sex marriage, a fourth voted not to make it illegal, we elected our first openly gay Senator (and she's a woman, too!), first Asian-American woman Senator, and our first disabled woman legislator, and we reelected Barrack Obama!

I can relax now.

We just gotta get those women back in their place! They make a difference in politics, and that is just not right!

That's snark, just in case.

I am so relieved.

Love, C.

If we don't put all those women back in heir place, society might just not revolve around straight white Christian men anymore!
