Why hello there, 2009

Ok, so perhaps this post is a bit late. And a long time coming. And I'm trying to recommitt to blogging, I am, and this is a timid and lame start towards that goal. But so.

It is 2009. Yesterday Barack Hussein Obama became President of the US. I am over-freaking-joyed and in awe of the steps he has already taken, his first day in office, towards undoing so much of what was done over the last 8 years. He is a strong, brave, intelligent man, and I keep getting tears in my eyes because I am so very happy and so very touched and awed by both the momentous occasion...and the everyday, little things you see in this man that really do convey emotion, intelligence, real feeling and thought. What a breath of fresh air.

But, I digress, the man has enough people expecting the world the sun and the stars from him right now, so I won't add to that.

2009, it has potential. Excellent potential. For me, personally. For the world. No pressure.
