Where were you when it was announced that Obama would be elected president? What were you doing? What was the room you were in like?

I was in the middle of nowhere somewhere off the 60E heading twds City of Industry to retrieve the phone I lost at the Spearmint Rhino where I shot last week. My best friend, E, and I were lost and pulled over to a burger joint with a rooster statue in front. It smelled like grease and no one spoke English, but it felt like something, anything since we were so hungry and so far from home. My friend noticed a corner turned down on the Britney Spears poster behind me from when she used to be hot. I got up to get ketchup and saw all the cooks and counter crew squeezed into the only occupied booth other than ours. I ran back and told E that I think the votes are in. The the tv got louder. The Spanish announcer got louder. We kept waiting for an English translation that never came then cheers erupted, distorting the tv's volume. Everyone in the orange and yellow booth started shrieking and jumping on each other. We went over to get a closer look. A million hands waving flags packed the screen. The bottom read: Obama. Presidente Elegido.
