happy

Rainbow over Birmingham

Lately as I drive down the road, wishing I could capture the colors of this season in words or paint or pixels, I find myself erupting into spontaneous fits of laughter. Barack Hussein Obama. I don't think many people have felt anything but cynicism toward the government since Watergate days. Who would have guessed that we would feel a collective sense of hope again?

(And by the way, rabbits poop a LOT.)

I really know what you mean. It seems a bit unreal doesn't it?

Amen, sister! Every time I think about it I either laugh out loud or burst into tears of happiness. It is so FABULOUS!! Now, when I hear them say that we'll be hearing from our president (elect) I perk up rather than cringe. What a difference!
