The Community Bookstore is having an inauguration party. Here's the email from Catherine.
No
plans for inauguration day? Come on over to our place! It'll
be completely ad hoc and according to the whims and wants of those of
you who scuttle over here, but here's what we've got in mind…
To
begin with, who needs a TV? Around 10am we'll rig up ye old digital
projector (the swearing-in starts at 12), and stream video feed from
somewhere like Democracy Now, the AP, or the New York Times (Decision to be made by those in attendance (We'll take a vote. Ha!)).
Bring
the kids, bring the dog, and maybe bring a snack to share? We'll load
up on eatables from a few of our favorite local shops (D'vine Taste,
Blue Apron (Ooh, should we have sweets, too? From Cousin John's or
Sweet Melissa? Oh! I'm excited already.)) And if the weather's right,
we'll brew up some mulled wine in the crock pot.
Which
brings us to the evening. I suspect we might just feel like drinking a
toast (or two), and would love for you to join us. The wearing of ball gowns is
of course optional, but strongly encouraged for everyone, of whatever
gender, race or political orientation, whenever possible (weather
permitting).
