I was just wondering,do people get --
do you have any storieslike that,
where people are justso embarrassing like that
and you triedto make them feel better?
Um...nothing that embarrassing.
[ Laughter ]
I think that was actuallythe peak of awkwardness.
Yeah, perfect.Thank you.
(02:06):
Can I just ask youjust straight up,
what is the first thingyou're going to do
when you leave office,do you know?
I'm going to get some sleep,that's for sure.
Yeah. Yeah.
You know, it's actuallya moving thing.
You're talking aboutsentimentality.
But I rememberfrom my inauguration
(02:27):
seeing President Bush --
You get on Marine One,
and that's the last timeyou get on Marine One.
They fly youto Andrews Air Force Base.
And then youget on Air Force One,
and it's your last flight.
And they'll take youanywhere you want.
And I think it's fair to saythat it will be someplace warm.
Because it's going tobe January,
(02:47):
and every inaugurationhas been freezing.
Yeah.
And then, you know,I think Michelle and I
will take a break somewherefor a couple weeks
and, you know, let the girlsmanage for themselves.
