At about 9:50am I went to the break room and watched a little bit of the music that was being played at DC.  Then watched everyone being sworn into office. A million and a half showed up to see the event.. the most in history. The event in itself was history.<\/p>\n<p>So Obama was sworn into office. But let me make something clear.. he was outside. \ud83d\ude42 He used Abe Lincoln&#8217;s Bible. So about the whole event&#8230; well.. it was kind of weird. I know it is a big event.. I get it.. it&#8217;s a big deal. I still don&#8217;t get how some people at my work were crying. When he was finally sworn in people were cheering and clapping their hands, some standing and others sitting and wiping away tears. People were taking pictures.. of what you ask? Of the TV.. of all the 20 or 30 people huddled into the break room watching it unfold on CNN.<\/p>\n<p>America is moving in a new direction &#8211; or so it is said.<\/p>\n<p>Random.. at work I typed to a coworker about the Obama speech (the justice who was swearing in Obama didn&#8217;t have enough time to pratice with Obama.. so it didn&#8217;t go very smoothly haha) and it kept wanting to correct Obama to Osama.<\/p>\n<p>Other news.<\/p>\n<p>The Cardinals have won against the Philadelphia Eagles. They are now in the Super Bowl. Crazy. I wasn&#8217;t sure how far they would make it&#8230; and now it is a clear possibility they could go all the way. My brother is one of the biggest Cardinal fans I know &#8211; I know he is savoring this moment.  It was good- I am excited as they are my team as well as his.  A few years ago I never thought I would like football anymore than I already did.<br \/>      &#8230;.oh how time can change things.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_589ZBhgM5fs\/SXaGZxzqSLI\/AAAAAAAAADI\/O4tpYYzAXDs\/s1600-h\/%21cid__IMG00471.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:240px;height:192px;cursor:hand;\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293566189445466290\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_589ZBhgM5fs\/SXaGZxzqSLI\/AAAAAAAAADI\/O4tpYYzAXDs\/s320\/%21cid__IMG00471.jpg?w=1122\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>They had the trophy at Emily&#8217;s work.
