i wish i lived in california. for a myriad of reasons, but for right now, so i could vote on that proposition. i don't understand why people care who other people marry.

ap says that obama is only up by one point right now. the election is in two weeks, so the fact that the race is getting tighter is to be expected, but it really scares me... if mccain wins i might just move to canada. THEY have universal healthcare. and if he dies in office i'm DEFINITELY moving to canada. i will be a happy little ex-pat.
