Top 10 Reasons Why Today was the Most Amazing Day, Ever:

10. I wasn’t freezing my ass off in DC today

9. George and Laura got into a helicopter and went to go live in a FEMA trailer for a year, even if only in my mind.




8. Charlie Brotman almost started off the inaugural introductions with “LAADIES AND GENTLEMEN… CHILDREN OF AAALL AGES…” was it just me, or did you feel like you were at a tractor pull for a minute, there?

7. Aretha’s hat. You work it, Miss Franklin.

6. “…we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around, when yellow will be mellow, when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right

Amen.


5. Maila Obama brought a camera and was taking photos. I LOVE that!


4. The large amount of shoes that were taken off feet today and shaken at news cameras.

Suck it, George.









3. Bill Clinton, looking delicious as ever. I LOVE YOU, BILL!!








2. Lest I forget, we have a black president.



And my number one reason why today was the best day, ever, is:


1. Dick on wheels.

I was perched three inches from my TV screen, screaming, “PUSH IT DOWN THE STAIRS! JUST PUSH THAT WHEELCHAIR DOWN THE STAIRS!!!!”




I really need to change the ringer on my phone to better reflect my celebratory mood.

I knew I wouldn't be the only one!!!! I yelled "I'll give you $100 if you push him down those stairs" Jeff looked at me.....trying not to smile:) He said they'd only do it if Leslie Nielsen was his stunt double!!

It was a GREAT DAY!!!!
