6. Didn't eat, so there was nothing to throw up.
I was dizzy and lightheaded though...felt like I was going to pass out. I couldn't breathe at some points.

7. Nope. I left work today because I felt the same way after hearing
Kerry had conceded the election.

Then I managed to get into a stupid fight with someone who, for all I know,
was having the same post-election blues.

9. probably not.
I've been borderline physically ill since last night and probably will be for a while. I feel at least as bad as I did after 9/11.

12. I am in the strangest place.
Tranced out. Somewhat zombified, with periods of anxiety. Unable to focus for any long periods.

It's shock. Exactly what it is, and emotional shock.

I had such great hopes for change and for it having a positive effect on my personal situation. Those hopes are dashed. I had many, many hopes for improvement in other areas as well.

Now, quite selfishly, I only can hope to be able to watch a lot of people getting their noses rubbed in the piss puddle they have created.

That will be no solace, no palliative at all.

Tonight, we need some hope. We are a community that is looking around and sees little substantive in the way of hope.

Hope. What a kind word.

18. My sleep was fitful.
Similar to how I sleep when I have a fever.

I still feel bad today, but it is fading.

20. I've had the 1,000 yard stare all day.
Here but not. Sort of watching myself go about my business in the most fucked up "modern" country on the planet.

Realizing that the "Other" is totally alien to me now.
