What now?

So the election is over. In a sense, I guess I am ready to start blogging again. I became an election junkie over the past two months. Every morning, I’d start my day with Morning Joe on MSNBC. From there, I would listen to Lionel on Air America Radio as I checked email, surfed my daily web, etc. I usually exercised around noon usually listening to the audio versions of “Audacity of Hope” and “Dreams Of My Father”. Then I rested my brain for a few hours before turning the tube back on to peep Road To The White House with David Gregory, Hardball with Chris Matthews, Countdown with Keith Olberman, The Rachel Maddow Show, and then finally 360 with Anderson Cooper on CNN. All of this programming became the soundtrack to my life as I went about my day.

I fell in love with Nate Silva, Eugene Robinson, David Gergen, and Donna Brazille. I already loved Paul Begala, Campbell Brown, and Tamron Hall. In cotrast I learned to hate Matt Drudge, Sean Hannity, and Bill O’Reilly more than ever –which, I know, seems almost impossible. I would usually just laugh at them before. My laughter of Hannity started back in 2004 when after the first debate he praised George Bush and assuredly claimed the president had won the contest handily. (If you recall, Kerry aggressively demolished Bush in their first debate to the point where you felt embarrassed for both candidates.) O’ Reilly was thrown the ultimate curveball when Obama decided to go on his show back in September. O’Reilly didn’t know what to do afterward; even he called Obama, “steely”. I can't even begin on Drudge.....seriously. Although I implore people to watch all four parts of Obama on O’Reilly. Yes, become an election junkie like me!!

My transition into complete geek didn't go without ribbing / punishment. My good friend Quo made two gifs of me on my myspace page.

As a result of obsessively watching history in the making, I’ve gotten extremely backed up with updates. So you can expect a lot of new announcements from now on. I have a lot of stuff to post.

Stay with me.
