Are You Still Smiling?
This is the way my Dad and I greet each other on each phone conversation now.

"Are you still smiling?"

"Hell yeah!" - me

"Oh yes!" - Dad

Are YOU still smiling 8 days post-election? I know I am!

4. I've developed a sort of OCD. I keep checking
to see if Obama's still our president elect. Like that it really happened & I didn't dream it or make it up. This happens 10 times a day. :rofl:

8. Smiling, crying, laughing.
Hell Yeah!

Every so often, I have to say it out loud just cause I want to hear the words...

President Barack Obama!

Damn it sounds good.

I'm even happy in my sleep, which used to be tormented. 'President Obama!'

15. I'd like to, but my mother can't get healthcare (even tho she has insurance) & it is threatening...

...her life.

We HAVE to start taking better care of our elderly and disabled citizens, and provide full, single-payer healthCARE (including therapy and long-term care for the disabled) to EVERY American.

So I would like to feel happy, but under the circumstances, I spent most of this evening in tears.
