I have a recap of the weekend to write still today, but in the meantime: These eyewitness accounts of the crowds at Cambridge, Massachusetts brought a tear to my eye.
“The world only spins forward. We will be citizens. The time has come.”

I was happy to hear this news last night.
Strange way of finding out though. I was sitting in the kitchen with Barb and Dave, and Dave’s just about completely deaf (even with the hearing aids), and so in the middle of a completely different conversation, I was sneaking peeks and reading the closed captioning on the news on the silent TV.
Of course, Dave is extremely perceptive, and I’m sure he knows what I was reading. Not that it matters much, he knows a lot about me anyway.
