I Swore

I wouldn't get sucked in, but I'm watching the Inauguration and feeling excited. They're playing the classical music piece now, it is so perfectly fitting. Big Kid is going to love it. He had BETTER be watching this in school or I'm going to be pissed. I was tempted to pick him up early but you know how he gets about missing phonics.

Anyway, it's a fine day to be an American.

Oh--and what the hell was on Aretha's head? Whoever picked out her hat should be shot.

I am cracking up about the hat! FIRST thing I thought.

My husband was on his way out the door and I made him come back, just to see the hat. It kind of worked for her though!

I adored that classical piece. I so hope they produce a recording (or I can find a pirated recording on .mp3) So perfect.

OMG that's hilarious! I thought the same thing. That was the ugliest damn thing! What the hell were they thinking?!?!?

I laughed my ass off when I saw that hat. Leave it to Aretha!

Aretha lives about 3 miles from where I do. I see her from time to time and she always has something bizarre on. Sadly, I'm sure she picked it out herself.

So I live about 10 miles outside of DC in Virginia and went to the inauguration yesterday! It was amazing! I know there are pictures everywhere, but if you are interested I put my pics up on flickr. We were on the mall and I was too short to really be able to see anything, but I think I got some good ones. Anyways, if you want to see the set, check out my flickr at http://flickr.com/photos/22745618@N06/sets/72157612790568859/

Its open to the public so feel free to post the comment!
