While posting a smart ass comment on facebook about Governor Gregoire’s mysterious disappearance, Jeremy started an online chat with our friend who worked on the Obama (pictured above) campaign. They got to talking about our trip to DC in 2 weeks and how we are going despite not having tickets for Inauguration Day. Come to find out our friend thought he could pull some strings and get us into the events and said he would get back to us. This after requesting tickets as a citizen – denied, requesting media credentials – denied, after hitting up anyone and everyone in congress – denied! Still, we hoped against the odds that our friend could come through. And like the campaign message, hope was enough – our friend not only got us Inauguration tickets, but also into the Youth Ball where President-elect Obama is said to be attending! Ball gown and tuxedo planning is currently underway. Stay tuned for more...
