James got us sweet tickets for the Inauguration on Monday. It was freezing, but once I wore an extra pair of gloves on my feet it wasn’t so bad. Actually, it was so bad, but eventually we lost all feeling in our appendages. James wasn’t super keen on going to the whole ordeal, but I used the “this will be a story we tell our grandchildren” argument, the same one we used for that time we trekked up to see some glaciers. 

Plus, we got to see cool famous people like Mitchell from Modern Family and Beyoncé. I spent a lot of the afternoon analyzing my hair in the mirror, wondering how long it would take to grow it out into Beyoncé tresses. You can see a play-by-play of the Inaugural Wonder that was Queen B here.  I realize that now it has come out that she lip-synced it, and I don’t even care. You can’t lip-sync hair like that.
