I had the inauguration on in the background today while I am working. At one point the station was moving the camera back and forth showing the crowd. While I think it would be awesome someday to go to an inauguration, I have no desire to be one little speck in a crowd that size. When I was very young, we were in the Our Lady of Guadalupe Cathedral in Mexico City. If you want to get close to the front of the church, you have to merge yourself into the massive crowd of people and inch your way forward until you can see anything. What I remember is holding my mother’s hand in amongst the masses and my head starting to sweat profusely, and then I blacked out. The next thing I remember was waking up with my family waving hats in my face to make a breeze. I may have passed out a few other times when I was young, but that one sticks out. As I have aged, I have always feared something like that happening again. I have been in large crowds at concerts and events, but nothing like that has happened, but looking at the size of the crowd I have never been in one that large. It would be very embarrassing to pass out and wake up being dunked into the reflecting pool! I’m sure that would end up on Youtube!
