nekosenseiFor those of you who read my Twitter posts, on Tuesday afternoon, I signed up to receive a ticket for Obama's election night rally in Grant Park. I received the email from the Obama website at 2:30, and I applied for the tickets at 3:00. I think that I may have gotten tickets and wasn't wait-listed, but I'm not sure. This was the confirmation email I got:
"***THIS IS NOT A TICKET. THIS EMAIL CONFIRMS THAT YOU HAVE SIGNED UP TO RECEIVE AN
ELECTION NIGHT EVENT TICKET. ***
You will receive further ticketing information in the coming days.
Thanks,
The Democratic Party"
The email is rather ambiguous. So...does that mean I'm going to get a ticket? I forwarded the email to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
doomsey, and he thinks that I am indeed going to receive one. From what I've read online, people who were wait-listed received a confirmation message saying something to that effect after they signed up. Hmmm...
I'm trying not to get my hopes up and celebrate until I have the tickets in my hand...well...more like in my email in-box. But if I do manage to score tickets, that will be really cool because, hopefully, (keeps fingers crossed) I'll get the chance to see history in the making. This evening, I told my best friend that this will probably be something to tell the grandkids about. Going to this would totally make my year, which has not really been a good one up until this point.
Honest! I swear! If I get these tickets, I'm going to stop complaining that 2008 has been the worst year ever!
