Tomorrow, January 20th, 2009, President-elect Barack Obama will be sworn into office as the 44th president of the United States of America and the first African-American president. I have been lucky enough to have the opportunity to be a part of history, by be able to attend a reception held at a law firm in along the Parade route. I am extremely excited to be a part of history and I know that there are many people who are extremely jealous of my opportunity. I am going to be a part of history. That absolutely astounds me!! Everyone that I have talked to has told me to take lots of pictures but I recently read about all the security restrictions and I am shocked by it all. The restrictions include no bag larger than 8"x6", only certain size camera's are allowed, and the list goes on and on. I am thinking that the history in the making will not only include swearing in the first African-American president, but probably the most people attending the inauguration, and possibly the most security restrictions too. I will write more about history later, after it happens.

That is awesome that you were "able to attend a reception held at a law firm in along the Parade route." I for one can agree that I am one of those people you mentioned, extreemely jealous of your opportunity. You should definitely make a post that explains how the event was because I am very curious and bring in some pictures to show the class. That's AWESOME!
