I can't say that I have any interest in staying up to watch it, although I may be up late enough to catch a few bits and pieces. I think the gf is planning on staying up for it though and I have a few friends that have mentioned either watching it or DVR'ing to watch later.

I am somewhat interested in the dress and looking forward to the news reports tomorrow. I'm sure I will be able to get my fill on the interwebs.

With all that being said, I do think it's very cool to hear about the different ways that people are celebrating this events. I've lost count of the number of local events that are happening, including the tea house in Seattle that is opening at 1 a.m. There's everything from breakfast at a local pub to some extra super fancy expensive, sold out the day after the date was announced, party. The radio station I listen to is also in contact with two local women who went there for the wedding and they've been giving live updates every few hours of where they are and what they are doing. That's been kind of fun.

I wish them well and keep my fingers crossed that the only thing that goes sideways during this event is maybe a few rain drops.
