I went to work today, but came back home after an hour
My mind is reeling, I keep bursting out in tears.

I refuse to watch the news, but I have AAR turned on in the background.

I don't know what to do.

I can't think. I don't know exactly what I'm feeling.

Therefore, I'm going back to bed. The healing has to start somewhere. somehow.

Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

7. AAR is all I have too
and they're saying all the right things to keep us sane. I can't call my parents because they're Repukes, and I don't feel like yelling at them. I'm still wondering what Mike Malloy will have to say about all of this.

9. I know
I didn't go to school this morning either. I will go to my night class, though. Because I can't get too behind. But I'm asking myself today if going for this degree is really going to pay off now. I'm $40,000 in debt and have no real hope of getting anything other than a job, not the career I had hoped for.

12. Hey kiddo, I'm with
you. Work at home and my bed is normally made at this point. Today, I don't have the energy to lift a finger. I want to keep the covers over my head. I felt that I've been punched in the stomach and all I want to do is cry and cry and cry.

13. I feel for you
I called in sick. I have a repub boss and one of my assistants is a repub and I told the other one--a fellow sufferer, that if I came in, there was a very good chance I'd get my ass canned for tearing out their hearts/lungs/eyes and whatever else I could get near. And when I'm not ready to kill, I start to cry.

15. I'm with you!
And I'm fucking pissed off! At US! Democrats need to hire ME for the '08 campaign. You have to poke Republicans in their fucking eyes not dance with them.

17. I, for one, won't watch any more cable news... ever.

They all whore for *, and even my favorites (Olbermann) will still
have to have stories about *. This will hurt as I'm a news addict.
I think I will take a break from DU as well. I put my heart and soul
into this election... as well as too much money. I really like it
here, but I can't stand reading things today.

Honestly, I'm not sure that we will ever unite behind someone as
much as we did Kerry... and I don't know who the Dems will run
next time (but I doubt it will be anyone who participated this
time). Hillary does not excite me... I don't know why. But that's
a long ways off now. Because of the way the states are divided,
I don't think we will ever see a Democratic Senate... and even
the House will be hard.

I think we are all feeling what you are today. I wish I had
words of hope or wisdom... but words fail me right now.

19. I'm with you
This is my first post. I feel like someone has died--our future has been taken away and we have * and company for another four years or until they're impeached.

I can't deal with any media. I want to know why those of us in blue states aren't pushing to split the nation. We'll keep our taxes, cultural institutions, universities, research, industry, etc. and stop being the donors supporting the zero percent income tax Southern states with all their bigotry, racism and homophobia.

21. Click
That was the final shut-off for CNN. I was down to listening to half of Crossfire, to catch what Paul and James had to say, but no more. I'm not sure if I can listen to Washington Journal for awhile.

Right now I'm glad DishTV picked up Sirius. I'm listening to the vault (6016) and gathering myself up with the music of my younger days.

Heavy sigh.:grouphug:
