Just remember to throw my ashes in the Shallotte River

Because right now, I could just lie down and die.

Seriously.

Yeah yeah yeah, I've never hidden my Obamania around here. And like everybody else, I will always have a permastamp memory of watching the inauguration yesterday and witnessing history being made. How amazing was it?

But I can't stop watching their first dance (and I've only ever heard one Beyonce song in my life). They're in front of the entire world, talking to and laughing at each other. Just like Steve and I did in front of 60 people at our wedding reception when we had our first dance to the Roxy Music song I picked out 25 years earlier.

They were talking to and laughing at each other. Just like most of us do with our partners.

Just like most of us.

Gonna watch this again and cry a few more happy tears like I did during my wedding dance.
