Change. It's been on the tip of every ones tongues for the past well year plus now. I've heard so many people excited for change! The air thick with anticipation for something greater to happen. I went out after election day like many of the other millions of people and trust me the tension was thick. After Obama won it was like a dark cloud had over passed. People were talking to each other, even hugging each other! Here in Minneapolis! I know it's strange! Even I felt this overwhelming air of victory. Yes I screamed at some cars in my drunken state smiling from ear to ear when they screamed back. The next day people looked me in the eye on the street. I felt like for once the city was a peaceful place. Like I could be walking and someone would just hug me randomly, stroking my hair while whispering in my ear that everything is going to be alright. I know it kinda sounds creepy, but you get where I'm going with this! The weeks to follow have been the same. All about change. What's going to happen? Will he be up to the job? The newspapers and websites all seem to be gearing in that direction. Yes, we won! Well, now what? Uhhhh... of course we question. I've settled into a nice routine of not caring about politics yet again. Hopefully soon I can even start talking to my McCain loving friends. Change is what everyone wants. Things are still okay but you know what would make them better?! Change. Ohhh I know, I'm so witty!
Speaking of change, it's fucking cold out! Seriously, I was just getting use to being able to show my collar bone again! Why must I live in the tundra?! Yes I ask myself that every year. The bitching about cold weather has only begun! You just wait until January! I need to move.
