So on May 6th I woke up early (an unsual feat for me) and headed to the polls with my newly aquired Obama button (given me the day before by a co-worker). I happily cast my vote and went home and went back to bed. But here’s the awesome part. The night before as I set here at my computer researching the candidates at the local level and choosing who would get my vote, I checked my email. And in my email was an invitiation to Reynolds Colliseum to (hopefully) celebrate a victory with Barack and Michelle. So…we went…and it was indeed a victory speech from the next President of the United States. We were so excited by the energy there (we were at a Kerry rally at NC State last go-round and the energy just wasn’t there), there were people from all walks of life there and all ages and races and it was just a special amazing thing.
Paid off that small credit card after Christmas. And I’m down to 1800 on the student loans…financial freedome here I come. Except I need a new car :(
