Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

At some point today, my coworker asked me if she was the only person who doesn't like the Obama girls. I had to tell her that she is!

I've got to admit, I think the two of them could be horrific brats without tight handling. There's something in the grins. Fortunately I also think they're getting that tight handling. Another good reason to have the First Grandma in residence.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was part of her argument -- that they will turn into nightmares, growing up in the White House. I'm pretty confident they are being Raised Right.

Has anyone figured out who Rahm was (thumbing his nose at) gesturing to? I'm dying to know.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm currently struck with how lucky young girls today are to have Michelle Obama and Jill Biden to look up to.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I found out this evening that the sales manager at my gym is on the lam. The cops searched his house and found a pot growing operation--including a pound of processed buds (no idea what this means) and TWENTY FIVE plants, along with grow lights and other equipment.

Dude.

Sounds like it sucks to be him.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm watching Obama and Michelle at the Youth Inaugural Ball right now, and they're making me want to swoon and cry at the same time. Could they be more in love? Gods, it's nice to see.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Dude. If you go to the "Sasha Obama's Sassiest Moments" over at Huffington Post, you see that she went for Halloween as the Corpse Bride.

Sweet.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I love them together, but I do not love the dress. I just saw her get entangled in it while dancing, plus it looks particularly lumpy from the side with the one shoulder.

I love your account of the day, Sarameg, and it's great to "meet" T and see y'all together.
