Sort of numb

Thank goodness that Mar is such a comedienne

We texted each other as I was on my way home and as she was voting last night and I suggested since the ‘need to buy’ list was growing, let’s go to Costco and stock up

We walked around Costco, which we admitted probably wasn’t the best of places to be walking around, since its the capital of impulse purchases and there for the taking (well, the buying) were Wii’s and Nintendo DS’s, Cuisinart knives, you name it, she and I looked at it

Her running commentary about all the food, the people that were there, the idiots at the polling spot, just a constant stream of chatter lifted my spirits and was just what I needed.  I didn’t go to class because I just wanted to get some perspective on things, and be around my kid.

I told her it was business as usual, that I would have a job in short order, even if it was a temporary one, and that things will change a bit, but we’ll still have a place to live and food to eat, etc.

We got out of there spending less than $80 and we stocked up on quite a bit of stuff that we needed so that’s something I don’t have to worry about

We got home and I made some quick dinner and we watched in awe as the election returns came in…and we sat with tears in our eyes as Obama spoke and we looked at each other in disgust as McCain supporters booed the mention of Obama and his campaign.  Real class acts those morons are…Obama supporters cheered when he mentioned McCain…just goes to show you the right person was elected

I told Mar not to wake me up at 5, however I was awake anyway.  I tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn’t as I tossed and turned for another hour or so.  Stumbled out to the living room (I say stumbled because I have planter fasceitis or however that’s spelled and I literally can’t walk lol) and Mar said that Prop 8 was being defeated, which made me sad

I got ready to go to the gym and I went, however, I just wasn’t feeling it.  Did my cardio and just went home…

I am trying really hard not to get down about this, I need to stay positive and focused

Stuff like this has happened to me before, and it didn’t stop me from rising again

Heck now I have time to go chop veggies and be a prep chef at Mar’s restaurant…yesssss!
