...where’s my hero?
mmm. that mimosa looks good. i didn’t manage to sleep until 5:30 am, so i set my alarm to get up at 8:30 to start watching the inauguration - on my laptop in bed. i only just now got my coffee and pancakes together.
its been exciting so far. (i really liked the part when bush high-tailed it to texas!)
i’ve never paid attention to inaugurations - when was the last time one was so well well attended - ever?
The inauguration excitement has done little to dispel from my mind my amazement over last week’s beautifully executed emergency water landing of flight 1549. Supposedly Obama arranged for kick-ass pilot “Sully” Sullenberger and his wife to attend the inauguration in person. I wonder if they are there, and if he will be trotted out during the parade or the ball. i really want to get a glimpse of the man who made it so i can study the seat-back security card intently during takeoff without feeling like a total dork.
