Defrosting

I know it doesn't sound exciting, but we went to BJs this weekend and I bought, among other things, a six pound package of ground beef. Then I came home and separated it out into 6 little meat balls, which I froze and now can take out to cook with a moments notice. And a giant Parmesan cheese. And a case of applesauce, mmm. I also have enough toothpaste and paper towels to last until the next Obama term.

Oh, yes. I am so elated. Driving home on Tuesday I got to listen to his inauguration speech and I was as moved as I was by the election speech. I have to admit, I was a staunch Hillary fan and was very worried he was all charm and no substance. But I have been so impressed with his big ol' dose of "get your ass in gear, America." I posted the transcript to my facebook page, but you really have to hear it if you didn't. Things are crappy right now. But he really instilled some sense of how together we all are in this, and how by working together, we can move forward.

And just as a sidenote, tomorrow is the 36th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Hopefully, protestors won't muck up my day. I'm having a post birthday dinner with some friends and desparately want to get out on time. I want to write a blog about Wall-E. Remind me later. I gotta get some sleep!!
