i ate breakfast with my grandmother today. she cooked me scrambled eggs and toast. it was probably the most pleasant morning i've had all week. she and i discussed the election and our mutual disappointment that kerry didn't win. my grandmother also mentioned how disappointed she was that people still ended up voting for bush. she said she stayed up too late watching the results. it was probably the most political i have ever heard my grandmother. i would count it as one of the most interesting and enjoyable conversations we'd ever had.

that said, i'm running for president in 2012.
