New Blog, New Year, New Beginning

Let's try this again.

Welcome to my new blog,

Today is a historical day as Barack Obama was sworn into office this morning. If you know me you know normally I could care less about what is going on in the world around me, but seeing how this economy has crumbled under the reigns of George W. D-Bag I have never cared more about what the future will bring. Seeing how the downfall has affected my family and others around me, all I can hope for is the change Obama will bring us.

Will he make mistakes? Sure. We all do.

Will people be criticizing his every move? Of course.

Do I care? Not at all.

I was a senior in high school when Bush got re-elected and still was unable to vote, so this year I knew what I had to do. Autumn and I went to the registrar the morning after Halloween..hung over and feeling ridiculous, and waited in line for 4+ hours to get our votes in early.

It was well beyond worth it (except that Prop 8 passed but that is a story for another day) listening to his promises for our country today. I am so proud of America for giving us another chance, and so hopeful for what Obama will do.

**raises glass** Cheers to our future <3
