My president is cool, is a reader and a thinker! Oh happy day!

So, I went to cnn.com for the live stream and it’s hooked up to Facebook and my friend’s status reports are automatically showing up on the right. I’m getting everyone else’s live-comments as a result.  Kinda cool, except the video stream isn’t working for me. It’s so great.  Everyone I know is rejoicing, watching tv about it, twittering about it, FB’ing about it, Echo’ing about it.

Oh!  CNN’s live stream is working for me now!  I’ve got the front of the church now.

Okay, off to see how else I can hook up.  I’ll be back.  My plan is to keep updating this post and not to keep adding posts.

Two and a half more hours!!

9:34am.  Someone on Echo just posted about Michelle’s outfit, but I haven’t seen it yet!  Must find.

9:38am.  Found a blog about Michelle Obama’s outfits, but they don’t have a shot of what she wore to church yet.

10:12am.  I can’t decide who I want to marry more, Barack, Michelle or Joe Biden (sorry Jill, haven’t caught enough to fall in love yet, but I love your resume).

10:20am.  I highly recommend watching the live stream from CNN.com.  The chatter of the people there is hysterical, the people working, I mean, the news people, camera people, etc.

10:38am.  I am loving loving loving all the live Twitters, Facebook status reports, Echo.  I can’t be connected enough!!

11:08am.  Everyone is calling Cheney Mr. Potter now. Hahahahaha.

This is one of the (many millions of) Marc Jacobs windows on Bleecker Street.  I’ve got the tv on, the cats are fed, my hopes are raised!

Walking home just now there were fire engines on Bleecker at Perry, but it feels like they’re in the neighborhood every day, several times a day.  Oh wait.  Maybe I just have careless neighbors.  Uh-oh.

I plan to live-blog the inauguration tomorrow.  I’m so happy.  I also plan to cry.

Who is purring and grooming, so I can’t get up.  Hence the picture of the view out my window at the moment. I am a prisoner to their laze-about whims!! Snow!  Woohoo!!

Up for today: errands, gym, finish first draft of this piece I’m doing for Parade magazine.

That reminds me, I have discovered Exercise TV, it’s on channel 1025 where I am. My plan was to use it on the days I don’t make it to the gym, so that I’m exercising every day.  But it feels like more of a workout than anything I’m doing at the gym.  Right now I’m doing something called 30 Day Shred.  Shed?  It must be shed. Anyway, KILLER.  It just feels more productive, and I haven’t been to the gym in a week. That’s also about the cold, but still.

I just turned on my tv and heard Barack Obama yell out, “Hello Baltimore!”  And my eyes just immediately welled up.  The past eight years have been that bad.  I wasn’t even watching.  I’m working and I’m at the point where I can tolerate background noise, and it was just the sound of this voice.  I’m going to be glued to my tv on Tuesday.

I don’t really have an appropriate picture to fit this post.  So here is Finney, reminding me that he is still as evil as always and Obama cannot save me from him. In truth, he was only yawning.
