10. I am laughing`
I am laughing with great humor and tremendous release and laughing so hard I want to weep like a widow but I can't because my belly keeps contracting and sending forth these loud guffaws that make the dogs gaze at me at wonder and howl their Great Dane howls while my children giggle and send high fives around the room

Just sayin'... feels pretty good in Castle Trav tonight.

Trav

12. Oh yeah...
everytime I realize that there is NO WAY for McCain to get 270 now.....no freaking way.....


Watching CNN here in Arkansas and the totals still show that Obama only needs 71 more EVs to win....71!!!

AND he's ahead by over 300,000+ in the popular vote (23%) reporting.

Gawd I am soo stoked!

34. Absolutely
Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion. Tears for the joy at seeing this man I so admire being elected to the highest office in the land...a country that desperately needs his wisdom and leadership. Laughter for our side finally having won, for the repugs being completely routed this evening.
