Why? Do you ask? Well, of course, because
OH SHOOT! won our first volleyball match tonight, it was 21-14, 17-21, and 21-19. Yay! It's nice to start the season 1-0.
Hey, I bet you all thought I'd be talking about the fact that Obama will be our next President!!
I got to admit, that is exciting, too. But as I said in my earlier post this evening, I haven't really invested too much energy into this election; I am just not that interested in the daily shenanigans of American politics. I pay attention to those issues that matter most to me, which are issues like Native American rights, environmental health, education, social justice, and health care, but for the most part, I prefer to spend my time doing work that I love and taking care of my family and enjoying the company of my friends.
But as I sit here watching Obama's acceptance speech, I admit the fact that we've elected the first African American President sends chills down my spine. And, I was alive to witness this historic moment. I just need to end by repeating something in his speech:
Yes, we can.

You know, Carver, I wasn't just talking about American politics or American issues. I was also talking about all of us cancer folk doing whatever it is we need to do to defeat this blasted disease. We can do it, right?
