the morning after

we were all excited last night, and still are this morning, but clearly Kenya really knows how to celebrate:

"KOGELO, Kenya — Barack Obama’s Kenyan relatives and Africans across the continent sang, danced in the streets and wrapped themselves in U.S. flags Wednesday to cheer in America’s first black president. Kenya will party for two days after the president declared a national holiday."

(emphasis mine)

I'd like to share deep, meaningful thoughts and heartfelt anecdotes from last night, but that'll have to wait as, frankly, I'm a little hungover.

That's awesome. I did get a little emotional about it all last night. A friend of mine was at Grant Park and I can't wait to hear her story.
