So I've already failed NaJoPoMo, which is a touch dispiriting given that we're still in the first week of November. I meant to write something when I got home from the fireworks last night but I got in and fell straight asleep - didn't even make it to bed.

I'm hoping to be up all night, watching the election and reading commentary. It's utterly depressing that this race is even close, Mittens is a dangerous joke and should be a footnote in electoral history: it's a mark of how wretched the Republican field was this time around that he was the best and a mark of how disappointing Obama has been that he's in this fight.

The encouraging news is that it looks like all 4 states with gay marriage on the ballot paper (3 to legalise, one to prevent it being banned) will come out in favour of it. If this happens, it'll be a huge step forwards for gay marriage in the States. I've got my fingers crossed.

All four? Fantastic!

I agree in that I didn't want Obama to win, particularly, I just couldn't stomach Romney winning.

I'll miss you on NaJoPoMo. Maybe next year.

I was particularly happy my home state of MN did not place a constitutional ban on gay marriage. My MN friends were working fast and furious to prevent. I'm so proud of all of them. I just wish I could have been there to at least vote against it.
