But I'd rather curl up with a blanket and go to sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382920 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 21:33:41 +0000 Corduroy 1382920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Doh. I'm sitting here wondering where in the world DH is. I bet he's in the driveway listening to it in the car! I got distracted after day care pick up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382276 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 16:30:17 +0000 coopsmama 1382276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure my husband will brief me in what is said. I won't be paying attention otherwise though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382253 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 16:20:14 +0000 yoursilverlining 1382253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will; we always watch the SOTU. It's likely my husband will get interviewed about it tomorrow (or late tonight, before the 11pm news) so we definitely watch in real-time.</p> <p>I'll be looking for real talk/plans on raising the minimum wage, addressing some of the ACA myths, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382152 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:45:39 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 1382152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do. We have it on in the background, something will catch our focus so we will rewind, listen to it again. Then we pause and discuss. By that point, we can fast forward through the applause.<br /> Then we get tired of it and move on to what we were doing before. Then the cycle continues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382133 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:38:24 +0000 littlek 1382133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll read about it tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382132 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:38:24 +0000 Boheme 1382132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: What you said! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382122 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:36:09 +0000 Dandelion 1382122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll just read about it tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to the parade of facebook jokes/comments that will come up because of this. Gonna stay off media tonight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382100 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:30:51 +0000 mrsjyw 1382100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep- we always watch...it'll end up being a wine drinking game for DH and I... all the times they stand and clap. all the repubs that dont. etc.</p> <p>As far as content? Not sure. There's a myriad of things that I'd like to hear about... not sure that there's enough time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382096 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:29:25 +0000 cmomma17 1382096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will be listening for stuff regarding higher education. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382087 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:28:24 +0000 jedeve 1382087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septca: I'm hoping for more emphasis on early childhood education, especially since that is so closely tied to working women and families! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382083 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:27:50 +0000 Littlebit 1382083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: I'm with you! I usually wait to read recaps. I used to watch them, but I really can't get down with whole stand up, sit down, clap, who's clapping, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382081 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:26:06 +0000 septca 1382081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will. I hope to watch on a station that shows the little graph of which lines Dems and Reps like... that makes it fun. But DH likes to watch on PBS, which has no fun gimmicks. :sad: </p> <p>I have to watch for work, but I also love politics, so I'd watch it anyway. I am looking forward to hearing what the President says about women, especially working women and working families, and the minimum wage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382079 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:25:56 +0000 littlebug 1382079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually wait and read the transcript the next day. I can't stand all the pomp and circumstance, the bazillion applause interruptions, etc.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1382070 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:23:04 +0000 jedeve 1382070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No one?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-watching-the-sotu-tonight#post-1381348 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 12:18:50 +0000 jedeve 1381348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anything in particular you will be listening for? </p>
