I've been restless and unsettled all morning; it's as if the monster from Alien needs to burst out of my chest so I can be comfortable.
After an hour and a half of "writing," I have the above paragraph. That's it. I've found a million other things to occupy myself, but I haven't found the words yet. I take a grilled cheese and potato chips break. Sweet tea. Comfort food.
Today is supposed to be the day. Yesterday we changed the world. After all our hard work, Barack Obama was elected our next President.
