I'm watching President Obama's swearing-in and speech on a big screen in a meeting room at work. It is so exciting to be a small part of history.
He's probably one of the greatest orators of our generation.

Month by Month Update
I can't figure out a better way to squish several months of updates into one posting, so here we go: a list. Voila.
October: got noise pierced; went to Bozeman, Montana. (Not related, although I needed the week to recover from getting yet another hole in my head.)
November: Drove to St. Louis for Turkey Day to visit family. Brought sweaters. Drove for 16 hours. Stayed over for a work meeting, got to stay in a hotel right across the street from the new Busch Stadium.
December: Had a nice quiet Christmas in Tampa. The Nunezes adopted us for Christmas Day and had us over for some special Dominican Republic plantain lasagne. Nearly blow a gasket because it's so incredibly good.
January: Had a 35-person party squished into our house for New Year's. Bandit was ecstatic the entire night, waiting for food to fall from reveler's hands. Played foosball in the dining room, Rock Band in the living room, and made s'mores by the firepit. All three of us slept for two days afterwards (we're not used to staying up past 10:30 p.m. on the weekends.)
January 8: Got Jane's Christmas card; laughed the entire way through it. (Hello Ciara!)
January 16: Got a promotion at work; I'm now officially a Senior Manager. Whee!
The rest of January 2009 - December 2009: work, commute, hang out with Bandit and Jas, ride motorcycles...
Love, M.
