So here we are… 
January 20th… Inauguration Day.
Tonight, watching coverage on BBC America, I surprised myself by wishing I could have been there. Just to feel like I was a part of something greater than myself. Just for the history of it. Just for the spirit of it. Just for the hope. Just because now, finally, my personal felt political and my political felt personal. But instead, Beau and I watched it on television, the next best thing. And even though Beau won’t remember today’s event, Obama may just be the first president he remembers, and there’s nothing wrong with that. The start of a new generation.
And so here we go…

I felt that same way….like I wanted to actually BE there to feel the moment in person. I was jealous of all those we were there!!
Lizzi says
Me too Holli! I heard on the radio this morning a guy saying that it was one thing to watch it on tv and an entirely different thing to be there and BREATHE the moment. I totally agree.
Brandie says
i was very disappointed that i didn’t get to watch anything on tv because i was at work. i would have liked to see some of it 🙁 but here’s to a new start and CHANGE!
