*'s first inaugural was on a Saturday, I remember it vividly and bawled

[greenbriar]

out of fear


in 2004 it was on a Wed and I again bawled but for different reasons

the day before my friend a sheriff was gunned down and my home town hasn't been the same




This inauguration will be Sooooooooooooo much different.

I imagine I will cry but this time for happiness and relief

1. I don't remember the day, but I remember I was so incredibly depressed.

I cried for days after Al Gore's incredible concession speech. I couldn't help myself. I was depressed months thereafter. Those were dark, dark days for me.

They got me through that miserable day.

5. I was at Bush's first inaugural

My first protest at the age of 18. It was pretty awesome. I was standing next to the guy who threw an egg at the motorcade.
