Well, that happened

United States of American, 1776 - 2024

It was a good run. I was hoping the old bird would make 150, but it was a good run. 

But seriously, this sucks. I am disappointed. I am worried. I am upset. Yeah, I am.

What does this mean for me personally? I don't know. Probably nothing good. Certainly nothing good for lots of people I love. 

 I mean, he's told us over and over who he is, and I think we can be pretty confident he'll be That Guy. I think a lot of people who voted for him are in for a rude shock, when he turns out to be That Guy. 

Here's the thing... I could give up. I could embrace despair. I could curl up and wait to die. I think you know by now that this isn't my style.

So, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to grieve. I'm going to be disappointed. I'm going to be angry.  I'm going to React. Then, I'm going to take a deep breath and I'm going to get to work.

The world isn't fair... but we can make our corner of it fair. 

Grieve, take a breath, and then take the next step...

Onward
