Tomorrow, starting at 8:00 AM, I'll be live-blogging the Inauguration Ceremonies
from my house in beautiful downtown Santa Cruz!
I'll dig out my stars and stripes bikini again, plus the red marabou negligee.
I'd love to have our own Pajama Obama party here on the blog.
Please do come by and share your FULL RANGE of emotions and opinion!
You can watch the whole TV broadcast right here, live, on my blog... courtesy of the feed I'm getting from Hulu.
How do you put in your two cents?
(Yes, I'm really picking up the phone... or if I'm on another call, start spouting on your own! Don't leave your phone or any secret info... 'cause I'll be just going with the raw file, no time for editing.)
Or, just hit the Comment button below the post and start typing.
You can also end me your photo/video of what you're doing during the Inauguration!
I expect, among other things, to go through disbelief, tenderness, outrage, euphoria, cynicism— not to mention sheer curiosity. No one my immediate family has seen an Inauguration before— because who ever cared? This should be interesting. Feel free to deliver to me your alternative invocation to Rick Warren's!
Don't We Have to Get to a Job Somewhere?
Uh... everyone I know has been laid off or has filed for bankruptcy. We should put our nose to the grindstone of despair, but this is once-in-a-lifetime cathartic event, and we couldn't go on with business as usual. You have my full PERMISSION to play hooky, and I will write a "sick note" for you if you like.
P.S. Yes, I have signed up for the Facebook group to watch the Inauguration with all my FB friends. That sounds fun, but who knows how it will roll out. Will they allow any kind of language? Is there going to be advertising? Do you have to be a DNC rah-rah? I didn't want to take a chance— whereas here, I have more control. If the FB thing turns out to be great, of course I'll be double-posting!
And if you're not my FB friend yet, good grief... get cracking!
P.S.S. What am I eating? I'm having Bagel BlowOut in the morning, with alll the trimmings. Then for happy hour, I'm reviving my Super Bowl Menu which everyone loves and it's easy enough I can do it all tonight ahead of time.
