I'm VERY proud to be an American today (sleepy, but proud..)

though, i'm STILL waiting to see if i'm a proud North Carolinian, to
bad my vote didn't count...=)

My oldest nephew Anthony voted this election... I'm a HAPPY aunt right now!!

is important to me.

you CAN be a pround north carolinian! bloodkitty November 5 2008, 19:19:59 UTC

according to the election board page, it's still "unofficial" but all counties have reported completely....
and nc went blue by less than 12,000 votes!

Hey,

I'm super happy as well, even though I'm sick as hell right now. But I'm wondering why you say your vote didn't count, even if you were kidding?

Love,
Jessie

Jessie,
I promise I was very much joking. I wanted to make it clear to the people who have told me in the past "NC will always be a red state why even vote!"

I don't (and didn't) listen and ALWAYS voted.

and LOOK at us now!

are you finished with school yet...=)=) you really need some
"free" time girly.

Oh so very funny!, lol shades_ofgreen November 5 2008, 21:23:06 UTC

You need to read the post I just made to answer the school question. I do have lots more free time now, at least until I start working on campus in the CAGIS department doing fun, environmental GIS research, yay ( ... )

I will by all means read your post about your school situation.

I have no doubt that being in an academic environment makes you
more aware of the political situation.

I've voted since I was 18, however it's only been the past
couple of elections that i've been detailed and looked at
EACH candidate. it's always so easy to clump them into 1
category and be done with it.

I actually like McCain as a Senator, but I don't think he
would be a good president.

and YES we are much over due for a Get Together...=)

How's Rock Band going...what's your favorite song??
