Michelle’s? Or my mother’s? On Wednesday, January 27th 2010, President Barack Obama gave his State of the Union address in Washington, D.C. I assume that other families, just like mine, were seated in front of their television, glassy eyes glued to the bright screen, ears as eager as alert dogs, and feet and hands just waiting to give standing ovations after standing ovations. Or maybe it was just my family then. Specifically, that mother of mine. So ecstatic was she; {Read More}

…And, of course, this is one of those things. Especially since there is a very likely chance that the people I’m writing about will read this. I know for a fact that some of them read my blog.
