Oh my fucking god!!! How could this possibly be? I mean, are there that many psycho, retarded Americans? I know, it ain’t over, and goddamnit, I fully support Kerry/Edwards calling for the counting of all votes (including the 60k missing absentee ballots in Broward Co., FL), but STILL. This race shouldn’t have been so close. Really. Totally ruined my day. I’ve been a nervous wreck. This whole week, I’ve had high anxiety. Work was so frustrating and overwhelming, so I really poured myself into it, working like 12 hours a day on this Intel new employee training shit. Finally made some headway today and got some breathing room, only to stress out again with the news. I returned home late tonight after SABIC and started prepping for Frank tomorrow morning, but thankfully, he text messaged me to cancel. I hope I can sleep in. It’s weird. I’m like totally wired staying busy with work and teaching, but if I lie down, I suddenly feel exhausted. Anyway, I’m keeping my fingers crossed regarding OH. Can’t believe Republicans gained more seats in Congress. Honestly, the US is going to the shits. I mean, think about it. I’m happier living here in Commie China, for chrissakes!

I’ve made some other observations this week that I was intending to share with you, but my brain is mush now. I’m heading off to bed shortly—first night I’m hitting the sack before 1:30 in the last two weeks. Maybe baba is right– the normal adult only needs 4 hours of sleep every night. 🙂
