Playing catch up

Blogging needs to take more of a priority in my life b/c there's just so much cool stuff going on around me and I have so much learning I'd love to share. But living in the city has turned me into a busy body-in the best way possible. So much good going on.

Eventually I'd like to share with you all my experience on Inauguration day. I'm at work now so won't get into it, but here's a teaser: I set up a blog for my group of volunteers who were one the parade route from 5am-6pm that cold, but beautiful day: http://obamavolunteers09.blogspot.com/
I wrote the intro, and only one volunteer has told her story so far. Hopefully more will come.

Photos need some organizing and captions, but check them out anyways: http://www.flickr.com/photos/28351783@N02/sets/72157612825822632/

First week as a DC resident!

So many good and fun things going on. Just to name a few....
  1. Moved from home into wonderful group house in NW DC
  2. Reveled in the fact that my alertness and general demeanor has improved because of a shorter commute.
  3. Made new friends
  4. Spent an 1.5 hrs in the grocery store going through every aisle
  5. Cooked/baked lasagna, breakfast for one of the housemates, banana bread, cream of broccoli soup
  6. Ate lots of cake and had a magnificent birthday with friends and a date
  7. Went to Attitude Exact art gallery's 20 yr anniversary black tie celebration
  8. Stood for over 3 hours with millions of others at the Inauguration Concert Sunday to witness history and proudly welcome our president-elect to his new home . Take a look at the album below.
