Yeah, Yeah, Good Speech…
Of course I loved Obama’s speech, but I watched it late last night on my DVR and fast-forwarded lots of it. Not because I don’t love his wife him, but because I was sleepy after park day and potluck (we weren’t even supposed to have a potluck, but Kristen is addicted to socializing and at the last minute begged us to come over, so Dawny and I were like, ok, we’ll come over even though it’s a huge burden.) Anyway, I fast-forwarded a lot because I know all about hope already. I am the hopefullest of them all. I knew I was too sleepy to watch it all, but I didn’t want to read about it on the internets without having seen at least a little bit of it. Spoiler alert: There were fireworks.
Um, so yeah, anyway, he’ll be our next president and I’m dragging my big kids (along with Kristen and her big kids and maybe Dawn and her big kid) to see him speak tomorrow at a high school. After seeing that giant stadium filled to the brim, I’m a little bit concerned about our chances of getting in, but it might be fun to try. We’ll see.
You know what else is fun? Cindy McCain’s half-sister isn’t voting for McCain. Haha. Half-sisters are bitches. Always.

i loved what her half-sister’s son said about mcgrumpy:
“I would not vote at all before I’d vote for him.”

It’s gratifying that someone in Ohio can be so sanguine about who our next president will be. It’s all up to you, you know.

From your keyboard to God’s ears (he’ll be our next President).
I hope you and the kids can get in. I think it will be something they will always remember. My brother never forgot seeing JFK in person during his campaign.

I’m so jealous! I hope you get in.
I will try to follow your lead and have more faith in my countrymen. Being on the receiving end of too many “Obama is a Hollywood Muslim who will raise your taxes by 137%, confiscate yer guns and give pre-schoolers condoms” e-mail forwards can make a girl gun shy. I need to seriously rejigger my spam filter.
