There aren't too many nights one can go to sleep knowing that the next day will be etched in history
Tonight is one of those nights. You will remember little things you'd never think of on any other day. You will hear voices more clearly. You will remember the stories of people you will never meet and the looks on their faces, and you will be able to describe to your children, grandchildren, parents, friends, and complete strangers exactly what it felt like.

Tomorrow we are all going to witness history. I feel fortunate to be a part of it and to have the chance to absorb it and to describe every detail of it years from now.

Fired up! Ready to go! Yes, we can.

1. I keep wondering what it felt like on July 3, 1776.

2. This sucks - I wasn't thinking today
I went back in for a second interview at a company today - more of a, "Hey, we talked with you two months ago, and our bean-counters have finally said we can hire you," meeting, and without thinking I told them I could start on Wednesday at 8:30 a.m.
