I get chills.

Check out this ad from Obama, really beautiful. Plus they use the music from one of my fave songs by the National (even though "fake empire" is kind of a weird message, no?).

Sassy Friends and Family--One Time Special Offer!

If you've been passed the salon sassy blog address in a dark alley, late a night, with a whispered caution "Don't share this. And, for god's sake, don't comment! No one can ever know you were here." by a friend (like Bridget) or family (like Amy), but you're desperately wanting to call us out on some stupid shit we said or share a really cool article or just generally get some heavy stuff off your chest--well, now's the time! Please, feel free to comment on anything that gets you juiced up. And don't worry about offending us, I'll just edit your ass out if I don't like it. Cuz I'm the Sassy Queen and the bloggers are my loyal subjects (well, except Bridg, she listens to No One).

But seriously, we want to hear from you. The Sassy bloggers know each other too well and trust me, we haven't heard anything new from each other in quite some time. So enlighten us, share your fears, make us laugh. But don't make us cry, JGJ only likes to do that, all alone, in his basement, when the Cubs lose. And this year, the kids are going all the way. And so is Barack.

See you at the Inauguration. Or the World Series.

With love and peace, and boatloads of optimism,
Ilsa
