Why am I at work?
when I rather want to be at home and watch CNN and see how it goes in Montana and Virginia. :mad:

and my boss comes in late today and my co-worker called in sick. Darn it.

4. Oh, you don't know how much this means to us!
Not only for OUR country, but for the world. We hate being seen as bullies, and we hate seeing our "leaders" act like bullies. I am so very happy tonight, I can't even adequately express it!

8. I can imagine how you feel
Keep up the good fight. After the house and hopefully the senate this year, the president in 2 years is the next step!!!!

3. I so nearly didn't come in today
6:30am and I felt so like not getting up. How I managed it, I have no idea.

(I suppose hearing that the dems had taken the house on the radio helped). :D

6. I was exactly the same
I woke up to my radio alarm with the news "The Democrats won the House". But it still took me some time to get oout of bed. Stayed up too late last night to see some frist results coming in. But I only catched the first exit polls.

:D

10. Oh yes
I woke up to my radio telling me teh Dems won the house.

I still remember in horror the presidental election two years ago when I went to bed with Kerry in the lead and woke up to the news that * got re-eleceted :scared: I was afraid something like that would happen again.
