The Elections and a Looooong Week

So the elections are now over. The president of the United States is officially Barack Obama, winning 349 to 147 electoral votes. He won popular votes as well at 52%. And then the nation swings democrat now.

I personally care little for politics. I have enough on my plate as is. If voting was going to get me a decent full-time job with benefits as well as get my parents off of my back on how to run my life... I guess I would vote.

My vote in Kansas feels like it would make little difference anyway. I don't get to elect the president, and Kansas is a Republican state no matter who votes. I've never understood politics. I don't know if I ever will.

But onto other news...

While the elections were going on, I was working all day. Everyone around me talked about the elections. Todd Tiahrt even had his victory party at the Hilton-- a pack of hungry wolves it was a long night.

And life goes on.

The rest of the week feels like it's going to kill me again. I am motivated to move onto finding a different job, but it seems that I'm not motivated enough. In fact, I'm starting to have little confidence that I'll be able to get any results with my life at all.

But anyway, life goes on and I'm sure I'll come up with something soon.
