Casting My Vote

What an historic day this was. The world is forever changed all because Obama enabled everyone to believe that change is possible by empowering them with his simple three-word slogan: "YES WE CAN!"

There was an electricity in the air this morning and I could feel it as I excitedly marched over to my assigned voting center with a leap in my step and a song in my heart. I couldn't wait to cast my vote! I took my time too. I wasn't going to let this important moment in history pass me by. Can I take my time in the booth?
YES I CAN!

However today, wasn't all about politics for me. I still had my own agenda for the day, which included heading over to the Actor's Equity Building to put my name down on the Chorus Call list for "Hair" and "Wicked." While there I got a list of Equity Showcases that are currently running around the city. Can I attend any of them for free just by presenting my Equity card?
YES I CAN!

Back on the streets there was election fever everywhere I looked. Times Square was ablaze with flashing lights and screens broadcasting coverage of the polling centers. There were even dudes selling Obama and McCain condoms. (I almost bought one, but two condoms for $7 seems a bit hard to swallow. I mean sheesh, aren't we getting screwed enough as it is by this limp economy?)
YES WE ARE!

After work, I met up with some friends in Rockefeller Plaza to watch the numbers tumble in and the states ice rink get painted blue or red. It was magical! I didn't expect a final result to come so early in the evening. At around 11:00pm the race for the White House was over and New York City erupted in applause and cheers. Wow! Wow! Wow!
Did we all have an unforgettable night?

YES WE DID!!!
