I am so excited about today and even more so about what tomorrow might bring. I feel as though, since that glad day in November, we've been hanging on the edge of a precipice just waiting to let go. I'm ready to let go. My dad, a die-hard Republican, is not. He informed me the other day that we were taking our last step toward socialism. I smiled my delighted smile and replied with a polite, "we'll see, won't we?" I think we've taken our last step with a president who, in my eyes, has led us on a sorry chase to shame. I'm excited to be a part of this monumental moment in our history... excited to see where we're going.

You know, I want to ask those people that say that we are on our last step toward socialism exactly 1. what do they mean and 2. is it a bad thing to not have a completely unregulated free market?

I, for one, am exceptionally excited for what tomorrow will bring.

I stayed up to 4 in the morning watching the inauguration ceremony and its aftermath. But it was worth it. :-)
