Go blue!

And no, I don't mean the Colts. :p Indiana voted Democrat for the first time since 1964! That is amazing. I'm so happy that my vote meant something, a big something, this time. :D I can't wipe the smile off my face today. I have to tone it down a bit, though. I'm surrounded by staunch Republicans and they are not happy today. Anyway, I know that it's going to take a lot of time and work to dig us out of the holes we're in, buit I really feel like it's possible. I guess I'll check back after the first 100 days and see how I feel!

I've been brushing up on my Russian with Susha. Having not used it much in the past six months I figured it would be mostly gone, but I'm pleased that I still remember over a hundred words. I am going to find the time this weekend to get back to work on my cyrillic writing. Unfortunately it fell by the wayside when I started to do more Rosetta Stone learning.

I just picked up a copy of Give Up by The Postal Service. I'm excited to listen to it. I really enjoy Ben Gibbard's (Death Cab for Cutie) voice. Here's hoping the album doesn't suck!
