I’m trying really hard not to do my little, “we won” smile and dance. I’m trying really hard, but it’s just not working. It is just a little too fun to go to law school the day after an election in a swing state. MO has done their part, now we just have to begin the arduous process of waiting to find out what happens in those last two states. And I have to set up my dinner at Murray’s (with wine) that I won from my McCaskill bet with a fellow law student.
And on a cosmic symbolic note – On November 3, 2004, the day after the last Presidential election, I began looking for a new career. That very day, while I googled my options an advertisement came up to take the LSATs. The deadline? November 4. Well we all know how that turned out. But today, on November 8, 2006, the day after the Dems took the house (and possibly the senate) for the first time since 1994, I accepted a position (for the summer, although it will hopefully become my after graduation job) with a law firm in a blue state! But more on that later. . .
Oh, and kudos to Dems in IN for gaining three seats in Congress! I’m glad you could do it without my vote, because I was clearly needed here!
