1. Me too. I'm starting to sweat profusely, and my heart is galloping.
Oy. I can't take much more.

3. Yeah, with a wedding you know can always get a divorce.
With this, it's all or nothing.

I'm gonna start drinking now, I think.

7. I keep tearing up
at little, sentimental anecdotes of voters, all day long. I can't sit still. My house is really clean, though!

5. I'm drinking.
I spent part of the day canvassing, and then making calls to Ohio via the Obama website. Some lady from Leesburg hung up on me and now I've lost my nerve. Even so, it looks incredibly good for Obama. I got an ugly person while canvassing today (yes, he was mean and ugly looking and I'm normally not shallow about looks--they don't usually matter) and he told me, 'I don't like him". But my crankiest guy responded with, 'Who in the hell else is there to vote for???' when I asked him if he was voting for Obama, LOL.

16. Polls Begin to Close Soon...

We should do well tonight, savor the moment. History will be made in the next few hours, and we are watching it unfold before our eyes.

17. Deep breaths, ginger ale.
We're all in the same boat. My wife was beside herself until midnight, when they announced Dixville Notch. Then, she slept like a baby.
