I am. Should be an interesting day, and if I'm at work, I'll miss a good part of it.:evilgrin:

2. No
Last time I tried to go to the Capital March, I almost got fired. I need my job so I'm not going tomorrow. But my boyfriend is. He left town today already en route to DC! Woohooo!! :bounce:

5. We're supposed to get a snowstorm, so
if it's bad enough, maybe I'll stay home. If not, I'll stream the audio here at work and tape it. I have a Dr. appointment at 3:30 and will go home right after that, but I guess I'll have to miss some of it and catch it on tape.

11. i also can only
see the good no matter how it plays out,but i will not be able to call out of work.

I don't even call out when I am sick and I won't lose my job if I did but i just can't.

The good thing is we do have TV's at work, Is C-span covering it? what time?

9. I hope I will be able to stay home and celebrate
I am a teacher and we had a snow day today. I am hoping that we have another one tomorrow since it is still snowing. We got 10 inches already and it is still snowing, "Let it snow, Let it snow", then I will be able to stay home and watch democracy in action.

10. What about N/A?
Edited on Wed Jan-05-05 10:11 PM by shiina
I lost my job after I got hit by a vet (Vietnam, I think) in a pick-up truck. I have rehab tomorrow morning, but will be home all day after that. But I get to bend my knee tomorrow. Yea!

14. I am sorry for your pain --
I hope you are not directing your anger at Vietnam Vets in general -- they served honerably, like Kerry.

At least, I'm hoping. My school's emergency closing webpage doesn't sound very optimistic :evilgrin:

17. Wish I could...
I've been off work for a holiday break since December 25th! Of all the rotten timing, tomorrow is my first day back. And my workplace is super conservative (the boss digs Alan Keyes and co-workers adore Rush Limbaugh)... I will be dying to get to the computer for the news!
