My parents are die-hard Republicans. I had purposely not talked to either of them about the election because I didn't want to hear they were voting for McCain, even though I knew they were. (And they won't even discuss it - that conversation is not happening.) So when my mother called me yesterday morning and asked how I was, I said I was pretty happy because of the election results. She said she wasn't and we proceeded to have a rather unfriendly conversation that ended with her saying we just shouldn't talk about these things - as she always does.

When I saw Daywalker's diary, The Most Beautiful Pictures I've Seen So Far I was inspired to write this to my mother.
