My congressman's office called today |
|
..it seems there are two innaguration tickets with my name on them.
The problem is that there's me, Mrs. OBD, and the OBD kids (aged 4 & 11). I will have roughly 6 weeks to decide which of them I love the most.

3. Oh wow, how cool is that!... |
|
All I got today was an email from my congressman letting me know that he'd had over 100,000 requests for 400 tickets and that his office would be doing a lottery to see who got tickets. I won't know until some time in January. :wow:

5. I'll feel lucky if and when the tix are in my hands |
|
I got a message; now I've left a message -- we'll see.
I'm leaning towards taking one of the kids -- something she can tell her grand kids about some day when I'm dead & buried.
