There is a lot running through my head tonight.
What an exciting day. I didn't vote based on race, obviously, but.. This is a day that I sincerely thought would not happen during my lifetime. It's actually made me really emotional and I'm not sure why. It's probably in part that school is making me rip my hair out.
McCain's speech is just fantastic. This the man who could have gotten elected. I have no idea where he's gone in the past two months. I genuinely feel sorry for how his campaign was handled. He is someone I would've voted for 8 years ago (was I able) and a candidate that I would not have thrown myself in traffic had he gotten elected. I just have no idea what happened to him. He became someone that I feel like he just isn't. Maybe I'm naive in that respect. In trying to play the experience card, he joined in the strength issue and just made himself look foolish with some of his reactions and demeanor during debates. However, the biggest detrimet to him was the decision to choose Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential pick. For some reason, I feel like he was influenced to do that. I don't know what it is, I Just feel like he's a man that would not automatically choose someone so wrong for the job. Let's face it: McCain's a little old. Had he picked a qualified candidate for VP, I would not have had a problem with him getting elected. God forbid something would happen to him, Governor Palin would not be an adequate President. Period. She made so many missteps and I feel in large part cost him the election.
Looking at her face right now, I feel like she knows. There's no way that expression is simple disappointment.
I have a lot of thoughts right now. However, there's just no time to think them. It's time to get back to work.
Congratulations to Obama and Biden. I picked that ticket a year ago.. only reversed. I'm thrilled with the results.

I just handed in my last final. I am (un)officially a college graduate. Oh, the excitement.
I've been cleaning and starting to pack up. Danny comes tomorrow. I'm about to wet myself with excitement. Gross.
I actually don't have anything to say. I'm going to continue cleaning and then go get mani/pedis with Heather. OH BOY!

UPDATE!!
So my cell phone rang during class today. I looked at it.. "215? Where the hell is 215?" So my friend Geoff, who has the internet on his phone, looks up the number. It's Cardozo's admissions number.
I sit there real excited for the rest of class. I listen to my voicemail.
"Hi, Laura, this is so-and-so, Dean of Admissions for Cardozo School of Law.. Just wanted to call you with some good news. I'm pleased to tell you that you've been accepted to the law school. The admissions committee and I are convinced you'll make a great addition to the school and, because of this, we would like to offer you a $25,000 a year scholarship."
...What? 25k? I wasn't even sure I'd get into this school. I cried.
My life is real good.

The debate tonight was hilarious. Shame on you if you didn't watch it.
Ridiculous Youtubers.
Mike Gravel making fun of the fact that he never gets a chance to speak (Totally true).
Anderson Cooper making fun of the fact that they couldn't find anyone to the left of Kucinich (Funny. Love me, Anderson Cooper).
Edwards making fun of Hils' jacket (TOTALLY TRUE. I was making fun of it since the time the broadcast started).
Dodd and Gravel just kind of fell into the background. Except Gravel's funny comments on him never getting to speak. And as usual, Dodd did not get to speak either.
Edwards. Meh. I still don't mind the guy, but I don't love him.
Hils looked puffy. That's beside the point. She's getting more okay in my eyes the more I watch her.
We all know I like Obama.
Joe Biden, I still adore.
Richardson did a great job tonight, in my opinion. He caught my eye more than usual, at least.
Kucinich... Oh, Dennis. We're the same on policy. I love you. I wish you had a chance.. but you wasted a lot of time talking about texting Congress that you could have used to actually make yourself seen in this debate.
Overall: Two hours of solid entertainment.
I LOVE ELECTION SEASON

Back to PGH in a week.
The boy said he didn't feel like working at a distance relationship. Was so surprised when my answer to "We can still hang out and talk all the time though?" was a huge NO. I don't let me friends lie to and disrespect me. Why would I let you?
Went shopping the other day.
Two cute black tops.
Giraffe print black and white pencil skirt.
Silver mini mod-like dress.
Skin tight black jeans
Two of the same top in different colors. SEQUINS.
Four pairs of shoes.
Flat, black, ballet slippers.
Flat, leopard print, ballet slippers.
High pink peek toe hot pink pumps.
Four inch, spike heeled stilettos.. sling back, criss cross on the toe, peekaboo toe. Leopard print. Sexiest
things ever.
Lacy's wedding a week from today. That should be sweet.
Time to go straighten my hair and go to work from 12-9. I wish I was kidding.
Speaking of hair, I'm cutting mine off. One week from Tuesday. I'll let you know how it goes.
