final four bound

WAHOOOOOOO....Go MSU!!! Final Four bound, which means they are traveling 2 hours to D-town. Soooo exciting, watched an excellent excellent game today which made me all emotional :)

Congrats to MSU and to the state of MI!!! Final Four baby.

gehen sie tanzen???

Wir gehen tanzen!!! Yeppers T and I torn up some serious rug last night. We hit the town and shook things up until the after party (which was T's house with C). Last call? What, still shakin what my momma gave me. Here are some highlights:

1. There were European's everywhere in Cville, and they all wear scarfs to the bar.
   
2. A two Indian man/LL sandwich is not my idea of a good time.
3. Sri Lanka is in the middle of a war right now.
4. Most Indian men are in technology (following a night of stereotypes).
5. Salmon burritos make delicious pre-bar food.
6. All black men at the bar are hot.
   
7. New rule: if someone takes your umbrella at the end of the night, it is OK for you to take the any other leftover umbrella (even if it is an upgrade from your original).
8. If you are white, a lawyer, wearing pleeted khakis, and most likely high, you are seriously the hit of the party.....you are allowed to dance crazy and everyone in the entire bar is talking about you.
9. T and I were still up and to the gym by 9:30 AM each. We are just so amazing!
10. Great fun with good friends...a pre-event to the beer festival in NC.
    

Why am I speaking in German? I'm not sure if it is even right!

I'm still a big weener!

Yeppppppers I'm still a big weeeeener!!! #1 in the pool.....bow down bitches! And getting $10 for absolute loser to Betty's pool too. Money, money, money, moooooney! I'm brilliant.

(OK only kidding, I'm expecting to down in the standing anytime now)

(but seriously send me yo money!)

so much I can say but I'll just show the picture

what every college student is listening to

Every couple years a classic freshman college songs come out. And one is burning up the charts right now. It is crap, just like all the other ones. Remember "because I got high"?

Take a look at what all the emerging adults are listening to and watching:



There some words of wisdom in this piece of shit: "do something crazy" "keg stand"

damn memphis

Well I'm going to drop in the March Madness pool now. Memphis, who I had winning IT ALL (stupid jholes), lost last night! Ohhh way to go tigers, lose to the other tigers. I'm right up there still at the top of the pool but I'm assuming after tonight I will start falling behind. There goes my $200....let's see who takes the lead. Those WA folks are killing it though :)

Jay is coming to D-town

Jay Leno is doing two free shows in Detroit, bless his heart (everyone needs to say this more often), but of course D-town has their undies all in a knot....IT IS URBAN FRINGE!!! I learned this on Monday.

only in MI (pt 2)

This shit only happens in MI....Man commits sex act with car wash vacuum!!! The economy is in the shitter and what else do you have to do....it only costs a quarter.

qoute of the day

"I'm giving the ol' cooter a break...I need to get it back into fightin' shape"

---a good of mine on quitting online dating

where does God want me to be...

Sooo remember those bracelets...WWJD??? Apparently some elephants still ask themselves this....Michael Steele, newly popular elephant chairman, says that he will run for Prez "if God wants him to do so." Black is the new President, apparently for all parties.

I need to ask God what he wants to me do more often....for example, tomorrow morning, I bet God won't want me to get out of bed. To go to work? To drink coffee? I need to pay better attention to God's sign in my toast, grill cheese, and potateo chips. When I see Jesus's face in my morning toast, I'll take it as a sign of what he wants me to do....

It's all part of the plan, grill cheese and running for president.

oh the irony

I find it highly ironic when celebrities and politicians bitch about how the paps are all around them and the media is always up in their business, yet they crave and both need the attention. Paris Hilton is a perfect example or that damn Octomom.

On the politick side, Sarah Palin does this shit all the time. Stay away from my family, but come into my house for an interview. I hate the media, but I need to stay relevant and up to date so just a couple pictures. Just shut up....I still don't care what you think.

apparently hitting a deer can cause problems

So who knew that Matt Lauer was actually really injured after hitting a deer with his bicycle last weekend! I still contend that it is odd to hit a deer with a bike....seriously how fast do you have to be going to not be able to stop when a large animal is standing in front of you?

I guess he had to have shoulder surgery which really sucks. The guy probably did like a duck and cover roll after crashing and ripped out his arm. Yikes. Hope he gets better so he can get back to reporting crappy news.

the snakes are coming for you

T reminded me today that I haven't blogged about the killer snakes that were released during a hurricane and are rapidly breeding!!!! Holy balls they are coming for you and your dogs....that is right, they will eat your dogs and probably your children too. Apparently they move at least 1 1/2 miles a day....so let me do the math.....how many miles between me and FL right now....how many days do I have left?????

I've had it with these mother-fing snakes on this mother-fing plane....Jon will sum it up for you:

If I was a man I would be afraid of moob sweat (like DWTS apple computer guy):

do you follow twitter?

I don't follow twitter yet but I was interested to see the top 50 celebrity tweeters! Who knew that all these people were so into this technology.

You can follow what Dave Matthews does throughout the day....apparently he doesn't mind traffic. Also you can catch up with Neil Diamond, and Yoko Ono.

Apparently it is not only the politickos that are tweeting.

a clinton movie

I'm not sure this is a good idea.....But there are reports that there might be a new movie about the Clintons! Dennis Quaid as Prez Clinton and Julianne Moore as Hilary. Really? Moore as a Hilary? I'm not sure, the long read hair. Shouldn't someone older play Hilary? What about Judy Dench? Julie Andrews?

Dennis Quaid as Bill? Hmmmm who will be better???

I would play Chelsea. hmmmm what is the plot going to be? Sex and power. That was tough.

dave letterman is off the market

So Dave married his long time girlfriend last weekend who he has a 5 year old song with....shoot they have been together for like 30 years! Hells yes they should get married. Well I mean they should do whatever they want to do, but 30 years is a long time....they already are common law! Anyways, Dave did a top ten that made me laugh:

10. Poconos offers newlyweds free room with champagne-glass Jacuzzi.
9. If I'm gonna catch Larry King, I'd better get going.
8. Still drunk from St. Patty's, dude!
7. She needed a green card.
6. When you're my age and look like I do, if someone says they'll marry you, you do it.
5. Don't have to listen to any more crap from that quack Dr. Phil.
4. I finally fit into my dream dress!
3. Free cake
2. Got tired of waiting for Paris Hilton.
1. Figured at the least we'd get a mediocre Top Ten out of it.

good fun in May

Speaking of beer....we officially have our tickets for the Raleigh NC World Beer Festival! That will be a great end to the term and officially start of the summer holiday. Beer and dancing....can't complain.

Other good news is that Jill may be coming down from MN over memorial day to visit Brian and I. Now that is going to be a crazy fun weekend if so. I have this great picture of Jill, Bri and I all decked out in MN gear, tailgating by the Metrodome in MN with Leine's in our hands. LOVE IT!!! It will be a great birthday present! Yeah!!!! I'm excited.

holding it down in the pool

Soooo I'm currently in 2nd place in my NCAA march madness pool. Who knows if I'll stay up there but I'm definitely making a good show of it this year :) Holla at your girl. Seriously, I totally called a couple of those early upsets! I mean who knew about Duke, but I knew Arizona was better than their rank!

I could really use that money....need more beer in my life!

music of the moment

Love her, love the ear rings, love the shoulder roll....

who hits a deer with their bike?

Matt Lauer apparently hit a deer with his bike while in NYCish area this weekend! WTF??? Steer clear man. He needs one of those handlebar ringers or horns...toot toot here comes Matt (with his eyes closed on a bike). Ohhh wait perhaps it was a unicycle...could have been.

I'm alive

OK OK It's 7 AM on Saturday morning and I'm happy to report I'm alive. I'm up. I got a cup of coffee made. I'm semi packed. Checked into my flight tonight. My ride will be here in 35 minutes. 1 more day of training.

Last night was amazing. I was supposed to have dinner with Ginny (UVA's new post-doct and my friend/colleague), but she invited 2 of our other colleagues, and randomally 2 other folks showed up at the restaurant as well :) We had great great Ceviche and moijitos. Probably shouldn't have done that but I couldn't resist.

I wonder if I'm going to die this week? It is possible.

BO misspeaks

BO made some jabs at the Special Olympics the other night on Leno. He compared his bowling skills to those who participate in the olympics. Listen the elephants are going to be all over this business, considering the sunday morning shows were full of people who didn't think he should go on the late night shows right now! He has been off message lately and boy this shit isn't going to help at all this week either (around 20:30 mark):

air traffic control can suck it

Air traffic control and all the pilots yesterday can suck it!!! I got delayed for 5 hours last night and didn't get into Miami until 1 AM!!! It was commented that all the controllers and pilots were probably in watching basketball......damnit. Made for a tiring first day of training. Going to get dinner now and then I'm going to sleep forever tonight and hopefully on the flight home tomorrow night :)

Good training today though. (they didn't rip me a new one fortunately)

I echo betty's prayer

Dear heavenly father,

Now that Michigan has won and will go to the 2nd round, please don't let Michigan State screw up and lose in the 1st round. Amen.

Miami here I come!

I'm off to Miami shortly....conducting a CLASS training and meeting with some high powered Head Start directors/teachers. Pray they don't eat me alive! More on Sunday/Monday :)

Happy early weekend ya'll!

Johnny Cash would kick your ass

Adam L on AI this season killed Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire on Tuesday night. I don't really watch TV much anymore...but you have to watch this rubbish online! Bad, bad, bad.

JC is rolling over and coming back to kick your ass!

picks are due 11:58 AM EST

You better get your picks in my pool before 12 noon EST today!!! Email me if you are having problems (ps, those are reading this before the time probably won't even realize they are having problems until it is too late). Oh well.....I'm taking your money!

LFA Ad Council help

I've mentioned that the Ad Council has signed on to help the LFA with their education and awareness campaign last year, and some of the videos are surfacing on YouTube and the TV. Have you heard anything?

Apparently the fake doctors at Scrubs are helping:





Also the LFAGW chapter put together an educational video with some of my friends...these are the people I work with more directly:



Keep getting organized LFA!!! I like this online business!

Luke, I may become a uni-ball

Ahhh I'm going to hell....but as my mom said "it is all down in that area." ANYWAYS, Darth Vader has been battling Prostate cancer! What other jokes can I make? Ahhh, (breathing), I am your....

can you figure it out?

This took me a minute to figure out....and Helga at least 30 seconds and a couple times outloud. Pat and Vanna are so tricky that I thought we were actually talking about:

who did BO pick for March Madness???

Really BO??? You couldn't have had any upsets???? Pitt, UNC, Memphis, and Lousville are in his Final Four!!! Wait, is that my final four???

been watching Jimmy Fallon?

So Jimmy Fallon officially took over the Late Night show on NBC a couple weeks ago! His ratings have been better than I thought they would be, considering I don't think he is very funny (hello, the movie Taxi? bad). But I know of a couple great NYC comedians and writers that the show hired, so clearly that is working in their favor right now.

Last weekend I caught up on some of his shows, opening act, and appearances. He was actually pretty funny at times. I think he needs to work on his opening dialog and his use of pauses (this is the comedic timing thing he's never been great at). BUT I enjoyed watching a couple episodes.

Here is a great blog post about the top 10 things that are green. I like the comment about adding another grassy material....ask Michael Phelps :)

some fun indecent exposure

So I'm a fan of Lady GaGa.....actually I liked her fun style before she blow up this year into the mainstream. She is the new princess pop is selling out stadiums across the country right now. Every teen is listening to her music now....and she has been my music of the moment before!

Anyways, GaGa is known for NOT wearing pants. She walks around NYC, London, Cville in hot pants, which are basically like the boy shorts I wear under my clothing! The hot pants match her hair bow and amazing big sunglasses. She has been getting in trouble lately by the Police for some indecent exposure!!! It will be like negative 20 in Minneapolis and she will still be wearing those glittery hot pants.

Gotta love her style! (just don't get arrested in one of the Carolina's or Dakota's)

celebrating St. Patty's Day WH style

Those Obama's are just so clever....and way more fun than the Bushes! Ms. BO, my new favorite addiction, decided to dye the WH fountain GREEN for St. Patrick's Day!!! Perhaps at Halloween it will go orange, and we can put witches in the front lawn....Basically we could turn the WH into the Playboy mansion....they probably have the same number of parties (although women are generally wearing more clothing at the WH). I can't wait for the balloon animals and blow up boxing ring! BO vs. Billary with those oversized gloves!!! Brillant.

Clearly the BO family misses that Chicago river and St. Patty's fun! Keep bringing it to DC. I like it.

music of the moment

happy st. patty's day

Hope you are having a great St. Patrick's Day!!! I forgot to wear green today, and forgot to buy green beer. I suck as an Irishwoman (although I don't have red hair or am not short). BUT hope you remembered and are enjoying the one holiday a year that grown adults get to be crazy!

two thoughts on the body

1. Last night in an amazing intense 2 hours of yoga, my instructor did some weird business to me while in a downward dog. First she pulled my hips from behind, then she ducked down, put her hands between my legs and basically moved my thighs outwards. It was weird. I laughed because her hands were in my crotch and her head right by my ass.....I mean it felt fine but I'm seriously luckly nothing happened!
   
2. I had a conversation with two good friends, both excellent gentlemen, last weekend about women's bodies. I was surprised to find out that could name women off the top of their head who had 1) a great ass 2) good boobs or 3) scary mouths. Well I'll acknowledge that men notice and think about these things....but I like to think that is all doesn't matter! But here I sat with these guy being able to say this ass, these lips, etc. It was both amazing and disrubing all at once. Perhaps I used to other men who notice these things but can't remember the woman's name!
   

Ohhh Aer Lingus....so clever!

Irish airline Aer Lingus yesterday held a publicity stunt called “999 Nudes,” in which 999 volunteers gathered together to get naked in public to promote a new 9.99 airfare. These pictures are from the London exhibit and just crack me up (hahahah crack). Ohhh Aer Lingus, you are just so clever. I want $10, make me holla, airflare. Damn Irish with their airlines and good beer...



And for all the men out there:

speedie award to Diane

So the March Madness Pool speedie award goes to......(drumroll).....Diane!!! She was the first to get her 2 brackets into the pool and already sent her pool payment this weekend. I need more friends like her!

Good work lady!

new MacGyver movie

So there are rumors about the internets that there is a new MacGyver movie in the works! I think they could do alot with a new movie, you know with the premise that "MacGyver gets out of dangerous situations using household items." No one has signed onto the film yet, but I'm hoping that silver fox, Dick Anderson. Perhaps Terri Hatcher will sign on!

SNL has been paroding this for years:

Bruno dies of cancer

Bruno Gianelli, aka Ron Silver, from the West Wing died of cancer yesterday. I didn't even know he was sick (not like I would have). But I liked his WW character!

go WSU

So yesterday they announce that WSU won the Pontiac Game Changing Performance of the year!!! So WSU!!! Considering they didn't make it into the tournament, at least this is something. They need the scholarship money for sure, because that is the only way they can get people to Pullman. And the budget problems they are having in WA right now is just as bad, or worse, than MI.

Check out the footage! It was a good shot.

march madness to include 4000 teams

This was just too funny not to post.....BRILLIANT!!! Look at the brackets:


NCAA Expands March Madness To Include 4,096 Teams

run, friends run!

So this morning I got my ass out of bed early, throw on some sweatpants (thanks dad) and made it across town to the Martha Jefferson Hospital fundraiser 5 miler. Now don't kid yourself, I wasn't running (although I was stiff after sitting on a cement block for 30 minutes, cold butt). T and our friend Katie were running, so I sat with the significant others to cheer them on! We had some great coffee and Baileys, and lots of laughter. We saw other work folks running too!

I told everyone ahead of time that I'm not very good at cheering during races because I don't know what to say. Here are some of my top shouts, which are all dirrrrty (because I have a dirty mind):

1. Keep it up!
2. Pull it out!
3. You can do it!
4. Faster, faster, faster!

What else did I say?

one golf gift I'm NOT buying you

You better watch your fellow golfers on the course....they could you using this!

Joaquin Phoenix is a nutball

So in the last couple months Joaquin Phoenix, you know the oscar winning actor, decided he was done with the acting business and moving over to rapping. Since then he has started to look more like the unabomber and makes public appearances apparently high on something! Well some clubs/venue are actually booking him and last night in Miami he got a little crazy at a gig. At first he was on stage, then he was swearing into the mic, then he was in the crowd attacking a hecker! I hope he is just badly punking the world with this rapping thing because he is a mix of post-Hollywood sasquatch and sucky Eminem. Check out his craziness:

news of the day

1. I got some dental work done today which results in half my face being numb for half the day because I need over 3 shots of the good stuff.
2. I'm excited for MN football next season! (more on this later)
   
3. I've been enjoying homemade sushi and hummus this week (thanks D)
   
4. Happy belated birthday to Claire
5. Happy belated birthday to Fabian
6. IT'S MARCH MADNESS TIME baby.....get your picks ready bitches.
   
7. Terri is coming from MI for Easter too! My weekend requirements: booze and laughter.
8. I have 1 regular, Katherine, up at the nursing home to never misses a manicure and who wants to walk around the home's parking lot with me.
   
9. Happy hours, running races with Baileys, and a Micah visit is something to look forward to this weekend.
   

children will have nightmares

This walked down the runway.....seriously I could do better than this!!!

breaking news

BO just overturned Bush's anti-stem cell policy!!!! This could potentially change the quality and length of my life!!!!!

BO sure is doing alot and pissing lots of people off. I like it.

I couldn't have summed it up better

These are my thoughts exactly on this Bachelor crap....

WV turns anti-barbie

In these troubled times, I'm so happy to hear that the congressman in West Virginia are working on legislation to ban Barbies!!!! Really?

Pretty soon in WV you will have to buy your Barbie dolls on the black market. Little girls will be sneaking them in through their bedroom windows....saving their allowances...hiding their clothing under their mattresses! hahahah.

I think that it goes back to parenting....barbies don't necassarily lead to bad body image, you know, if the parents are parenting.

LFA advocating

Here is a picture from last week of me, some other people, the LFA CEO and the LFA spokesperson a model/actress.

my weekend projects

So I decided to paint one of the walls in my apartment the last couple weeks. I went from yellow to off-white/cream on one wall. My inspiration was a PPT slide or some gradient business. It turned out pretty good actually! The pictures don't do it justice because it really depends on what kind of light is on it....and I still need to trim the bottom. But I like it! Thoughts?

white house playground

So BO, with all of his free time lately, built his two children a playground on the White House lawn recently. I mean his children are still of playground age and the White House probably isn't the coolest place to fun around is (you know, men with guns all over the place). I would like to see BO take a 5 minute break and go play with them. That would be a photo for world leaders to see....BO getting stuck in the tube slide!

herpes on the raise

So apparently herpes is on the raise, not only along grandparents due to the advancements of magical blue pills, but also with emerging adults due to their rapid use of beer pong. Really? We've linked herpes to beer pong....sounds correlational. I guess there is herpes just sitting around beer pong tables and wanting for unwilling, and probably drunk, college students to pick it up. It couldn't be that college students are more sexually active these days with multiple partners?? Nope, it has to be the beer pong.

I'll admit I haven't played a good round of beer pong or tip cup in over a year. I'm woefully out of practice, and phhhh that probably means I don't have herpes. But I would like to encourage other beer pongers to have a water bowl where you clean off the ping pong ball every go, you know if it has fallen on the ground, etc. That is just beer pong etiquette and probably a way to get the herpes off as well!

In the beer pong spirit, I've looked up one of my favorite videos of some MI folks with one of the best beer pong set-ups I've ever seen:

breastfeeding

So breastfeeding had been in the news lately because some crazy mother was pulled over for 1) talking on her phone, 2) breastfeeding her child, and 3) attempting to drive her car. Hell I'm surprised she doesn't throw in smoking too, then I would have been even more impressed. This is the ultimate multitasking.

This situation has of course brought some discussions on mothers breastfeeding in the car. Of course mother shouldn't breastfeed while driving, but I'm talking as a passenger too! I'll admit I never thought about this, partly because I don't have children. It makes some sense because you could kill the baby if in an accident.

Again on the breastfeeding note, I'm sure you've heard about the facebook mothers who are upset that Facebook removes the pictures of them breastfeeding. This is considered pornography. No boobies allowed on this social networking site....that would just bring down the quality or integrity of what happens there.

more NEW HP!!!

Yeah yeah yeah I'm going to wet my pants I'm soooo excited!

oct-mom birth

Ohhhh Jimmy Kimmel....I like when they bat them away with a pan!

more reminders to shut up and walk softly

How freaking depressing is this graph????



I like how the graph isn't set at zero, but at "OK" :)

This is a reminder that I need to shut up and walk softly....be thankful to have a job despite the fact I've been entering in data for 3 days straight!

This graph could also be a gun, aiming towards OK (hehehehe). Just stating the obvious here.

music of the moment

Been slightly addicted to Lady Gaga and this song lately:

quote of the day

"I want to get a shirt with a rainbow on it, but I don't want to seem gay. I'll have a rainbow, and under it I'll put, 'Not Gay' ... 'But supportive.' How did one group of people get to claim refracted light? Greedy gays."

news of the week

1. I filed my taxes last night and I'm getting some dough back! And this year I was poor enough to get free help from a UVA CPA who helped me put my retirement plan in the correct column so I wasn't paying the govt for it too (yeah I did that last year). Also the Univ. pays for me to go to school but I get the educational credit. Bitchin.
   
2. I met with 2 senators and 2 congressman office on Tuesday to tell them their business about Lupus.
3. I've been listening to French music for the last two days.
4. I didn't sleep for shit last night and got about 3 emails back from folks this morning as to why I was up at 3 AM.
   
5. I finished another HP book while driving this week (only the 3rd time I've listened to the 5th book).
6. Betty, Brian and I had some pub food and beer on Tuesday night! Here is how we ordered: I asked "what draft beers they had", the waiter says "bud, and miller light" and betty goes "I'll have a bud light!" HELLO, not one of the two options at this hole in the wall bar that still has tinsel and christmas lights stapled to their walls. I LOVE IT! PS, I'm pretty sure betty can buy pot at the shady, clorox smelling convenience store next to the pub!
7. That stupid Bacholar jhole assclown of a dad choose a wife, proposed and dumped her on the reunion show for the runner up. I hate reality shows (more on this shit later).
8. I'm wearing sweatpants and non-university matching sweatshirt and hat becuase I am going to sit in my office for 8 hours today entering in data. I may want to kill myself tonight.
   

vanilla ice (ice baby) has something to say to you

some art I can appreicate

You know I spend the greater part of last Friday at the new show opening at the UVA museum (I was getting some serious culture on). OK OK I'll admit one of the main reasons I was there was because of the free food and booze....but the Bush Years cartoon were pretty cool!

Anyways, now I'm in the artie mood and I read about this Dutch artist who makes art out of his head! Listen I know alot of 3 year olds who glue shit to their head too. But this dude took it too a new level. Behold stones of his head:

PS, this is art.

fashion?

Well fashion week has come and gone and there was definitely some craziness and bad bad bad outfits. Here is one of my favorites. WTF is this??? A picnic basket breakfast topped with something that is a cross between carbs and bacon. Bad bad bad.

camels in a subaru

I bet I could get at least 3 camels into Gail's lesbian-o-mobile....that would almost as cool as the big bird that flew in the sun roof and pooped all over the place:

I could not have taught Lucy how to do this

advocacy days

Well today I met with 4 representatives/senators......disappointing of the day was that I didn't get to meet Congressmen Perriello. Unfortunately his father passed away yesterday and he is with his family. I meet his nice legal aid instead....but I was sooo looking forward to that.

Overall good day...good dinner with Brian and Betty....good meetings on the hill. More later!

LL goes up the hill

Alright I'm headed out soon for DC. Tomorrow I got 3 meetings with my representatives to tell them their business about Lupus....I'm going up the hill baby! Wish me luck :)

GWB ice cream

So remember around the Inauguration it was all this crazy HOPE fever....and Ben and Jerry's introduced a new flavor called "Yes Pecan!" Well it turns out that B & J were also interested in polling Americans to see if they could create a new flavor for the outgoing president, GWB.

People were asked: For GWB we created "__________" what would you fill in?

Here are some of their favorite responses:

1. Grape Depression

I personally like Credit Crunch and Cluster Fudge.

we got snow

Well it's snowing balls here in VA and across the east coast. People are stranded in SC and I'm sure everything is closed here in VA....here is what I woke up too!!! Look at the plastic pinto....it is all cute covered in snow. Wonder how advocacy days today and tomorrow are going to go?

This is the most snow I've seen here in VA in 2 years.

ptick's tweeting

And on another note, what is with all the congress wo/men Twittering during BO's speech???? Shouldn't they have been listening and well you know, REPRESENTING THEIR PEOPLE!!! But instead they were tweeting....keeping the world up to date with what they were doing. Here is some of what you could have learned from your representatives if you were paying attention to their tweets instead of BO's speech:

Texas Republican Michael C. Burgess spent his time examining the president's prepared remarks. "Not much healthcare in tonight's speech it seems," he tweeted while waiting for the President to arrive.

Montana Republican Denny Rehberg said the excitement in the room was palpable. "Waiting to hear Barack," he wrote. "Place is on fire." South Carolina's Gresham Barrett tweeted that the "Capitol is buzzing."

Rep. Earl Blumenauer, a Democrat from Oregon, sent out a flurry of tweets during the evening. "One doesn't want to sound snarky, but it is nice not to see Cheney up there," he remarked just before the speech. "Obama enters," Blumenauer wrote after the House Sergeant-at-Arms announced the President's entrance. "Crowd goes wild. Members taking pictures. McCain and Lindsey Graham. What a picture."

OMG it is like I was there!!!!!
