Not over yet...

(I apologize if this reads like gloating, but I've been exploding to make this post for a couple of months now.)

Now that reality is officially in the tank for Obama, I feel comfortable making this public. Some of you know that my brother works in DC. This means that I got on the list early for tickets for a certain event whose headliner was just announced.

On January 16th, [livejournal.com profile] vixyish and I are flying to DC to attend the inauguration of the 44th president of the United States of America.

I hope it's not too cold. Having the tears freeze on my face will be uncomfortable.

What an amazing moment in history!

Color me slightly green. :)

I just told my dad this morning, since he happened to call. Wow is he excited for me! :)

Coolness!

Keep your friendly neighborhood DC-area filkers posted. If y'll are not too busy being wined and dined, we can make something fannish happen! 8-)

Wow! I hope you all twitter, or take lots of pictures, or... smuggle us all along in a big jar of brains!

Ooooooooooh!

Congratulations, that's just ... amazing.

Awesome. I think this makes 4 or 5 people I know who will be there. You all have to take lots and lots of pictures.

Am jealous. But also excited for you. You know how it goes. :)

I'll be watching it on TV...

There's the whole "part of history" thing, and then there's the "finding out what his intentions are" thing.

Hooray! I'm way out in the suburbs, but if you guys need a place to stay, you're welcome to crash here.

That's an incredible chance. I'm green with envy. :)
