YES WE CAN!!

Two days after the election and I'm breathing a sigh of relief. There were so many emotions riding in this last election I feel like I just got out of a bitter divorce, only the real fight is just beginning! For the moment I'm giving in to political apathy and taking a break from the over inflated media hype.
I'm enjoying that my stomach doesn't clench-up every
time an ad comes on and I even started watching the morning news again. Save for Madonna's divorce, I feel as though the universe has come back to some sort of fine balance. The question now is what will/can Obama do to fix the mess America seems to be in?
I was talking to a close friend from Germany not long ago and she feared that if Obama hadn't been elected the markets would crash and Europe would resend back into the dark ages. Not sure how much credence I give to that sort of thinking; we would all continue to muddle on no matter who was elected, the question was just how and in what direction we were going to muddle in.
I did prepare a small write-up before the election about debunking political rumors, so I'll throw that up just for laughs. Otherwise, I'm looking forward in my own life and planning many a things.
