how can i sleep on a night like this? it hasn't hit me yet exactly what has happened - for the first time in my life, i can say with complete and absolute truth, that i am proud to be an american and that i love my country. hyperbole, perhaps, but i am so overcome with [insert adjective of joy here] that i cannot fathom speaking of it in any other terms.
we did this. we actually. fucking. did. this.
of COURSE i cried during his acceptance speech. i am so happy to have witnessed this moment, i - just. wow. i don't even have the words. all i want to do is hug america and say, hey, go sleep for a little while. let's bask in this for a minute; we can roll up our sleeves and get down to the dirty work later this week.
HOLY SHIT. :D
