I went to bed early last night and slept in this morning, so I was on pins and needles as the computer booted up. Whew!

He went on and on about how sometimes we just have to get over stuff and deal with bad facts. Finally I got awake enough to ask did Walker really pull it out, thought he was on the way to losing? How could Warnock not have won? At that point he cracked up and told me the truth. He was just disappointed Warnock didn't win by 4%.

Things I love to put up with.

He'd have reacted far differently if Walker had won, and we both knew it.
