My best friend sink_or_swim is Black, and pretty much hasn't been able to stop crying since last night, when I called her. I keep randomly bursting into enormous grins, and then watching/listening to something that makes me tear up all over again. The first thing I did when I woke up this morning was smile.
Naturally, enormous history geek that I am, the Gettysburg Address references in the speech pretty much put me over the edge all over again -- not least because Mom, Dad, and I have been re-watching The Civil War lately and just hit that episode yesterday evening.
Hasty marriage not necessary after all. I've never been so happy to get to stay single. :'D
(Palinaspresident.us has put up a new layout, if you're looking to cry again -- they set the speech to music, with people singing along on "yes we can".)
