There's a parade going on in the Village right now, and I think I hear fireworks in the not-so-far distance!

Roommate A wants us to go join the parade :D

we live in a secluded subdivision, and everyone has jobs, so no noise here...at least not outside.
inside this house - - oh yeah

Hee, the cheering is so loud in some apartments that during Obama's speech that apparently everyone was watching, I heard loud cheering during the pauses in his speech :D

hahaha...must be nice; you could hear a pin drop in Orange County ;)

Wow. I remember sitting in 6k listening to Obama speak at the Democratic National Convention during the last presidential race and saying "Why can't we vote for that guy? He'd make a great president" :)

Oh, the memories!

We ended up going to Union Square for the festivities. Nothing organized, just a bunch (or a lot) of people cheering and doing celebration-y things. Roommate A and her fiance are still there. Me, I'm extroverted-out, but it was fun while I was there :)
