Last edited Thu Nov 8, 2012, 06:09 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1) I am still a bit fuzzy headed about that night and haven't fully landed yet.
The news of Obama's win came a bit earlier than we expected - the graphic on the tv said he won and we all just sat there stunned and motionless, reading it over and over and then the mayhem and cheering took over and just about busted out the windows. It was a wonderful night.
