And now that we can sigh a breath of relief, lets relax and have some nice, soothing wine. (Well, I don't have any wine, but I shall find some.); 10:59 AM

Em said...: I saw on Ebay today that the 11/5/08 New York Times is going for upwards of a $100!! I was too slow to get my hands on a copy. I would have saved it though. :); 9:52 PM
MotherReader said...: I like looking at all the covers - esp the Yes He Did!

For the past couple of days I've been wearing an Obama shirt -luckily I have two - and sharing smiles with strangers. It's awesome.

Oh, like EM I heard about the papers for sale on Ebay and such and was kicking myself for not grabbing a couple at the 7-11 since I was up at 6:30 a.m. anyway to get my daughter to school. Well, I've got my Washington Post and I'm not parting with it.; 12:01 PM
