OMG! Change is HERE!

[heidi]

Keith just noted that Barack Obama has been president for 102 minutes! And they've all been wonderful!

I've been off LJ and on DailyKos (my diary about WhiteHouse.gov's update got recced!) and in aim chat this morning, but I had to swing by with my squee.

I love the whole world!
I love our president!
I love the White House
And its new residents!
I love America
And all that it can be!
I love the coverage
On MSNBC.
BOOM DEE YADA! BOOM DEE YADA!


Did anyone put a Kick Me sign on George Bush's back on his way out the door? If not, can someone do a manip of it for me?

Boom dee yada! boom dee yada!
I was excitedly dancing around in my living room at lunch watching all the coverage. I'm twitching 'cause I can't watch any more until I get home. *sigh*
I love the whole world.

*High-fives* A great big thank you to all y'all Yankee-folks for the celebrations going on across the world today!

ARGH! When I clicked on the 'live coverage' link on msnbc.com, it directed to NBC's coverage, so I assumed that they'd combined their coverage and for reasons unknowable Keith & Rachel weren't part of the show - I just refreshed the site and found the link to MSNBC coverage and am cursing having to sit through Brian's coverage of the main event! Strangely, though, it's nowhere enough to dampen my mood!

LOL I know it's awful of me - and insulting to the few people in Texas who are liberals - but as Dubya was getting on the helicopter to leave all I could think was, "GO BACK TO TEXAS WHERE YOU BELONG." :P And I lived there for a short time, so I think I'm allowed to say that. :P

I would love to see an xkcd-style version of this jingle.

Boom De Yada Indeed!

I can't wait to go home and watch the coverage, especially Keith and Rachel et al.

But what if we don't want him back? Can we get a refund? Or a deferral? Or anything?

I'm watching CNN.com's streaming

I'm bawling my eyes out.

Who would have thought?

When you get home and can watch everything, you'll love the whole world even more!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

You can probably catch some of it on their website, but I have a feeling some of it may already be on YouTube.

Love the icon, btw.

[hermorrine.livejournal.com]

I feel your pain, however, I'm pretty sure it's too late since they own multiple properties there...

I have to say that I'm now envisioning a sort of clear bubble encasing the state of Texas with a big "BUSH. DO NOT WANT!" sign and amusing the shite out of myself...

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

OMG TOTALLY!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

They win the internet!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Gratuitous icon reply!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

I think I need to turn it into an icon, at least. Let's get TRANSFORMATIVE!

(Love your Into The Woods icon, btw.)

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, I must tape them tonight! Cannot WAIT to see them!

Love your icon, btw!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

I LOVE THE WHOLE WORLD!

[karaokegal.livejournal.com]

Made by our mutual friend hllangel.

[ravenrants.livejournal.com]

Consider this icon my little part.

[petulans.livejournal.com]

I shall certainly be looking out for it later on once the events of the day are over.

OBAMA! WOOT!

[nicocoer.livejournal.com]

Me Too!!!

I Just bawled on the phone to my mother (She does more Juvenile Justice-Mental Health stuff While I do general Transition aged stuff for MH and a little DD) over the Ethics, Disability, and Education pages. She was chanting to my little nice, "President Obama! We have a new President!" and holding her up to the phone and talking about her smiling at the words.

My Niece is going to grow up in a different world, hopefully, than I did. Just. *wibbles*

No "Kick Me" sign, but one of our reporters claimed he could hear people in the crowd singing "Nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, Good Bye!!!!!".

Got to find that on YouTube!!!

[phoenixsong]

The people I was partying with also did that while they waited for the 'copter to show up.

I suspect none of us were alone in that moment. s:)

PRESIDENT OBAMA. Because it's fun to say (and type)!

FYI, Texas has far more than a "few" liberals! Harris county, which is the 4th largest county in the *country,* went for Obama and was blue overall. Dallas county, Travis county (Austin) and big parts of the Valley went blue. Texas will be blue as a state in another decade.

We are not a "few" scattered liberals, and we do NOT want Dubya back!!!
