DS is asking for 'Beebies'... not a chance.

kayzr · 20/01/2009 16:59

I am really looking forward to his speech.

DS1 keeps turning the sky box off though.

not fair! i wish i was watching. i even voted this year!

i'm soo happy about it. i'm soo glad Obama won. i didn't think it would happen. but i am soo friggin ridiculously happy.

before he won, i didn't think there were enough Americans out there who would vote for Obama considering the racial climate following the bush administration. but boy was i wrong. (and thank goodness for being wrong!!)

Why was he in a wheelchair?

Poledra · 20/01/2009 17:02

Bugger - need to go pick up the DCs. Ask Obama to wait for me, will you ?

Habbibu · 20/01/2009 17:02

I heard on the World Service this morning that there's something like an 80% approval rating for Obama atm - amazing!

Now, obv he cannot keep that up - but it shouldn't take the joy away from it, either.

boredveryverybored · 20/01/2009 17:03

Hurt himself moving boxes to his new house or something they said

PenelopePitstops · 20/01/2009 17:03

Habbibu · 20/01/2009 17:03

I've never seen Yo-Yo Ma play before. How cool. DH plays cello, so I think it's v. sexy.

CrushaGrape · 20/01/2009 17:04

The poor musicians are in suit jackets; I guess a coats would encumber them too much. They must be absolutely freezing.

SmallShips · 20/01/2009 17:05
