The election results were rather interesting.
From a straight "ra-ra-Democrats" perspective, it was a good night for the Democrats. What it means for us remains to be seen. But Massachusetts got it's first black governor, and the House o' Reps got its first female speaker of the house. This means we're closer to the day when gender and race won't be a big deal when it comes to public office, proving that you can be a partisan asshole regardless of race or gender. I get all moist-eyed thinking about it.
I'll ponder this further, but for now, I need to bathe and get to work. Sascha-cat woke me up in the wee hours of the morning engaging in some verbal pissing match with a cat outside my window. I'm glad he's not an outdoor cat. I've never had an attitude problem when Sascha meets new cats in the confines of a private home, but there's a cat out there he really wants to beat down.
