And as we leave this mountaintop

Yes, we can.

He has been president for FIFTY FOUR MINUTES AND COUNTING. This is so epic. I don't know what to do with my hands.

I and the hundred or so other people in the student center TV room were clapping and cheering, and now I am watching the streaming coverage on MSN. So right now, I have figured out that I can type, but I still have to stop and flail and go OH MY GOD to myself.

I cannot begin to explain the overwhelming sense of relief I feel right now. Relief that we got this far, that we did right, that this man is my president, that I will be able to watch the State of The Union addresses to come without wanting to reflexively throw something, that I can believe.

America, we did good.

Now we just need to keep doing it! But for now... Yeah, relief describes it. And joy.

I'm still processing the thought that George Bush is GONE. Finally.

I am watching MSNBC's streaming coverage, and now he's on the helicopter! He's going away. FOREVER.

*clings to you!*
