i'm not even fifteen minutes into the hbo-made movie recount and it's already so familiar i'm getting tiny panic-attack flashes.

talk about post-traumatic election syndrome.
this was my political coming-of-age, and even just the news clips are bringing back buried memories.

i wouldn't have been able to watch this movie any time before november 5th. i would've had a panic attack for real.

...which makes me realize that the most victorious election of my lifetime was one month ago today!
which in turn makes me realize that it's my momma's birthday.

off to make a phonecall
i'll let you know how the movie turns out.
