Oh my God, oh my God, President Obama!

Okay, so I was as excited as the next person on Inauguration Day. I watched the swearing in with the rest of my company in the conference room, and followed coverage on my computer the rest of the day, and caught some of the Inaugural balls last night. But just now, on Countdown, I saw a picture of Obama sitting at his desk in the Oval Office, on the phone, with his shirtsleeves rolled up. And my heart did this thing in my chest, and I suddenly had tears in my eyes, because it's really real: PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!!

YAY!!!!

Also, as an aside, I love how much Barack and Michelle love each other. It is so beautiful.

I keep tearing up - we have all done an amazing thing. And have you been following the news? He's been busy today!

Also, as an aside, I love how much Barak and Michelle love each other. It is so beautiful.

Real love, baby. When was the last time you saw that?

Here, I share my favorite inaugural photo (http://community.livejournal.com/obama_daily/179153.html). The rest aren't too bad either.

Barack and Michelle are lovely. God, how long has it been since we've had a First Couple who looked like they like each other, much less love each other?

I will totally admit, I teared up a little bit while watching them dance at the Youth Ball. And then he said 'old skool' and I might have fallen a little bit in love. *laughs* Man, it is SO good to have a President and First Lady that treats Gen X and Y with respect.
