One year from today...
Jan. 20th, 2016 11:28 pm... will be Inauguration Day. We in the United States will have a 45th president, like him/her or not.
The last time we got a new president, I had a four-day weekend because I worked in DC and Inauguration Day fell the day after MLK Day. Inauguration Day is a holiday in the District because CROWDS and SECURITY, so I had Jan. 20, 2009, off from work. However, I spent Jan. 17, 18, and 19 sitting in the Merchants Tire & Auto in College Park, getting one thing after another repaired on my car's engine while they tried to figure out why it was overheating. By the time Jan. 20 rolled around, I simply wanted to sit at home in my pajamas and watch the proceedings on TV.
If we elect another Democrat, I would really like to go into DC for the inauguration. If we get a Republican, hell no.
