I’m in MN too. A couple of my in-laws are 0bamabot, atheist socialists. They are officially out of my life. If my husband wants to see them, fine, but count me out.
I’m having a hard time shaking the impending sense of doom I have had since Tuesday night. My husband thinks I’m borderline crazy, but then again he doesn’t think too deeply about the implications of this election. He even suggested I stay off of FR. Fat chance of that. :)

I thought it was just paranoid ole me.
I have had a sick feeling in my gut, and not just a “we lost”, but oh crap, the you know what is going to hit the fan feeling since Tuesday.
I have had that sense of impending doom for a very long time. Since I was a teen.
I now feel like the time is short and the day is near.
And oddly, that’s calming.

My boyfriend is a good man who comes from a staunch union Pennsylvania family...straight D for them (as much as it pains me). When I go issue by issue, my boyfriend agrees with me, but he can’t not vote D. It’s been ingrained.
Last night, he said, “Things have been great. The Phillies won! Barack won!!” I had a MELTDOWN. I just couldn’t stop sobbing. And I think he finally saw that my months of anxiety and impassioned pleas weren’t just to rile him up. I also can’t shake the impending doom.
It’s interesting how others have mentioned the subways/trains being unusually quiet. I had the same observation on the subway into Manhattan yesterday morning.

Hmmm....we must have the same relatives. And I have the same sense of impending doom. Can’t shake it.
