Today I felt it was more important to watch Obama’s inauguration through the magic of live streaming video from my bed than to get up get to work on time. (Oh future, you are so magical.)
My early morning head muzzy on time differences, I missed most of the show, but as the speech drew to a close, I could feel my eyes stinging with a rich mix of emotions. Pride, wonder, worry… but most of all relief.
Congratulations on your recent transformation, U.S.A. On your recent return to morality, decency, and fair play.
We’ve been waiting for you. It’s going to be a good day.
