YES, WE DID!!
OMG - what a night! . I just had to register just how historic tonight has been. Tonight, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America. A truly, truly amazing day. After months of anticipation and nervous monitoring of the polls, he actually, finally did it. I've just got home (at 2am) after a night out with friends (and strangers!) celebrating and sharing the evening and really feel privileged to have been part of such an historic event. Walking back through Union Square, with the enormous crowds that had gathered there to chant, sing and celebrate was just amazing. I spent most of this evening in, or close to, tears - Barack's speech was so moving and profound. What an incredible night - truly one of those "can you remember
when?" type of moments!
