I had hoped, but to actually HAVE IT HAPPEN!

There are fireworks going off all over my neighborhood. This is fantastic.

Glued as I was to the BBC, sometime this morning a weird, dare I say Obamaesque calm descended upon me. I never seriously doubted it for the last few weeks.

That said, in the weeks after McCain picked Palin, I was a little nervous. I remember around then when Chelsea Handler said on her show, "We're going to elect a black man president." Her audience was silent, and I gasped too, but it was Handler's attitude that eventually won the day.

I was oddly superstitious, like if something said could jinx things. But! President Obama!
