(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.

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!

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.

I am so happy for you both! Too awesome for words.
