Change Has Come to America

The sun sets on an amazing week. Barack Obama was the first "winner" I ever voted for - my "losers" list includes John Anderson and Ralph Nader. Donna is in Connecticut visiting her sister, but we used our iPhones to text, e-mail and share the events on Election Day. Like many, we were disappointed with the outcome on California Prop 8, but are hopeful that we will soon turn that corner as well. I don't really know what else to say, but I know what I feel: hope.
