Moments

I’m settled in downstairs. All the ex-presidents are now arriving. The last time you had a real transition was 8 years ago. They are always so exciting. No matter who is taking over from who. I’m all a-twitter.

I gave both Brandy and Amy a heads up that we were less than half an hour from the relevant bits of the ceremony starting to happen. I think Amy immediately went back to sleep. Brandy is up, but I’m not sure if she plans on coming down to watch.

But I wouldn’t miss this for anything. And yeah, I have a better view from here than I ever would have had in person. But it still would have been nice to go.

I’m thinking with less than 40 minutes to go it might be too late for me to change my mind and go. :-)
