6. Disbelief...

I can't believe that MN re-elected Norm Coleman.

WTF?

That's what my mom said. And can I just say that I'm ashamed to live in a red state?

This was called? When I listened to MPR this morning they said there was a recount.

Ha! I can't believe anyone would vote for Al Franken. Not that I'm a huge Norm Coleman fan, mind you, but Franken is a nutcase. :P

I also have to say that I find it interesting and cool that we have been friends for so long, yet differ so much on politics...

That being said, Laurie - who says I voted for Franken?

I think Coleman is sleazy...just can't shake that feeling.

That's true, I guess you never did say you voted Franklen. I stand corrected. :-)

I will agree there is a sleaze factor on Norm. Plus the fact that he used to be DFL and switched to GOP... figure it out, pal. As in so many of these elections I don't really like anyone. It's just a matter of picking who I find the least bad.

That's kind of a sad statement on modern politics.

I think the whole Senate race was just gross. It was so mean & nasty and just - ugh. GROW UP. It was disheartening and childish. I don't even mind people changing their minds (and therefore their parties) as they go through life (I mean, to some extent) but the race just kind of made me sick.

On that point, Carrie, you and I are in 100% agreement!!!

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
