exsequarSo how did I do on my electoral projection? Pretty damn well! :D
Final count: Obama 365, McCain 173
My projection: Obama 367, McCain 171
I had a few missed guesses in the details, but my numbers were closer than any pundit's I saw! \o/ The differences were that I gave Obama Missouri and Montana, which he lost, but he won Indiana which I didn't give him. The other difference was that he won a single electoral vote in NEBRASKA (one of only two states that split their votes by Congressional district, the other being Maine). But overall, the night went pretty much exactly as I expected, and I am very pleased, obviously :D YAYOBAMA!
I watched a piece of his press conference today where he talked about the decision of getting a puppy for his girls, and I was like "....wait, our president is FUNNY AND ADORABLE. I am CONFUSED." It's really bizarre, but I am more than willing to get used to it! :D :D
We watched more West Wing tonight. Gosh I love this show. Gosh I love Sam Seaborn and Josh Lyman. ♥
The MSI/Leathermouth tour sounds AWESOME, but they're not coming to me /o\ The closest is in NJ on a Saturday, but that's a week before my final exams, so I'm thinking.... no. Sadly. But I expect all kinds of glorious shenans to be reported! \o/
I have a horrible weekend ahead of me. Two chemistry tests next week plus a stupid (actually not stupid) cinema assignment that could not have been timed worse. Plus I am itching to get moving on grad school stuff, but I really don't have time to, BUT I also feel the clock ticking and OH GOD. I'm a little terrified, not gonna lie.
I have run out of things to say. Goodnight.
