For all my talk about wanting to avoid the crowds, it looks like I'm going to be in the thick of it after all. Adam, my friend and former co-worker from Free Press, just offered me an extra Inauguration ticket his housemate gave up. It looks like I'll be in the special ticketed area behind the reflecting pool, and I should be able to catch a glimpse of our incoming president getting sworn in. I can't believe my luck. What a great way to start the year!
Here's a link to the Inauguration map for those who are curious:

I am also tentatively planning on attending a special ball that night, what's really an art show actually, called "The Art of Change" in Georgetown. I heard it is going to be one of the better parties that night, I still gotta get a ticket though....
