I wish I was on the National Mall with everybody else in the DC area, freezin' my ass off (or a substantial part of it), waiting for Obama to give his speech.

About Me
- Desert Girl
- American semi-Kuwaiti living, working, eating, boating, and observing in Kuwait. Born in America, but raised with Kuwaitis, I get culture shock on both continents. No one understands me, but my dog, and she still gives me strange looks once in a while. I do not accept payment for advertising; I won't entertain the thought. If I think your product or service is worthy of discussion, I will post about it. If I help you, you can send me pink roses. If you are interested in reading about the Bedoun cause in Kuwait, see my posts which are tagged "Bedoun Civil Rights Movement".
Life in the Desert
I danced in the desert,
I swam by the shores,
I spent warm nights under starlit blankets of silver,
I made friends from far-away places
I ate and drank and savored it all
I loved and was loved
What more could anyone ask for?

It was a wonderful ceremony. A memorable day. Congratulations America
LLOOLLL, Desert Girl, they sold you a pirate copy ruby shoes, not the real thing!
Thankks, Jewaira. And hopefully, it will be a blessing to the Arab world as well Inshallah.
Intlxpatr - Yeah, you're right. I saw the ruby slippers on sale at Villa Moda, but they were still too much, so I got the knock-offs at souq shaabi. :)
