Not Live, but no less Enlivening

This is not a political blog, but I can not let this historic day pass without comment.

I watched video of the inauguration and President Obama's speech as covered by MTV here.

Text of his speech can be found here.

You bet I teared up listening, reading, and watching the President and First Lady walk hand in hand down Pennsylvania Avenue.

I sure am hopeful.

Missed It

I missed the entire inauguration. I slept through history. I still can't believe it.

I couldn't sleep last night for nose blowing, head aching, and throat soreing. I finally really fell into deep sleep around 6:30 a.m.

When I awoke a few minutes ago I had several missed phone calls from Mr. B&B trying to wake me for the inauguration. I didn't ever hear the phone ring.

Well, congratulations, Mr. President.

I am going to have a glass of orange juice and go back to sleep.
