Today marks not only the start of a new presidential administration for the country, but the start of a new presidential administration for Eric and I. Believe it or not, even though it seems like we've been together forever and a day, we didn't start dating until the first year of Bush's first term. So wow, we'll see what it's like to live life with a new president.
I just heard a cute story on NPR. Neal Conan was taking calls from people to share what they were doing during the inauguration, and a man named Thomas -- from Louisville -- called in to say that while he and his wife were listening to the inaugural speech, they were at their doctor's office getting their first ultrasound, hearing their baby's heartbeat for the first time. And on top of that, they dated the fetus to 11 weeks, with a date of conception of -- get this -- Election Day! How coincidental!
And, by the way, I can never get over how Neal Conan says "bye bye" to all his callers. It's odd.

I heard the same story on Talk of the Nation and I always have the same reaction to Neal Conan's "bye-bye"!
Oh, and the guy said she was his fiancee and Neal said "Good luck to you and your wife." Freudian? Puritanistic?
