Obama has won! I should have posted last night, when I was all teary and moved and hopeful and so ridiculously proud of this country that I could barely express it, but I ended up just collapsing into bed instead. I cannot even tell you how happy this makes me.

However...Prop 8 in CA looks to be passing, which is absolutely heartbreaking. I honestly hope that it's one of the last major acts of social conservatism in this nation, and that President-Elect Obama is ready to lead us into a future free of such blatant, hateful discrimination.

I was so happy and caught up in news coverage that I couldn't even properly fangirl over Jon and Stephen sitting at the same desk! I'll have to watch that again for the slashy content, when I'm not so preoccupied. :-)

I was sad I didn't have your new number, I wanted to text all of my friends back home. Everyone was freaking out here, it was great. France loves Obama.

That fucking sucks about Prop 8, bastards.
