At Last

For the first dance at The Neighborhood Ball tonight (the first of all the balls tonight) the song chosen to begin The Neighborhood Ball is the song At Last. I'm most familiar with the Ette James version of this song, but for the Neighborhood Ball it is Beyonce who is performing it. But I'm a purist, and it is Ette James' song as far as I'm concerned. And what a choice. There is, of course, so much symbolism in the title of the song.

    I'm emotionally exhausted. Imagine what the Obamas feel.

    Someone else sings "At Last?" This cannot be. It is the end of the Republic.

    I was doing laundry. I actually stopped what I was doing and just watched.

    I always said if I got married again it would be the song I danced to ...but the chances are slim and none that will ever happen...no one would put up with my bullshit and if they did I wouldn't have any respect for them.
