Won A Bet

Yesterday, my friend Mark made good on his bet with me and paid for my drink at Starbucks that morning. He was surprised that Obama won the election. On the other hand, there were times I thought that McCain would get it. I am so glad I don't have to see any more poltical ads on television. And what is odd is the job that is now being done on Sarah Palin by campaign insiders. How Palin has been treated always seemed odd to me. How much flak she received since she was nominated always amazed me. For now I am unwinding. I had expended a lot of mental energy into writing about a subject that is not especially pleasant for me, and I need to take a break and turn my attention on other matters. Also, I have a cold I need to get over.
