Things I Like

- Having wireless DSL, did I really use dial-up for two years??

- The New National Museum of the American Indian-- a little overwhelming, but well done

-The Cheese Guy at Eastern Market-There's a special place in my arteries for all the cheese this guy convinces me to buy (most recent, "Sage Cheddar")

- New Mini-Break-and-Bake Cookies from Pillsbury

- Vegetarian Times Magazine

- The Washington Post's Free Daily "Express"--all the news you can read in a 10 minute Metro ride.

- Our dog--Goes without saying, but she's done a really good job adjusting to us being gone most of the day, and is still as sweet as ever.

Happy Birthday Toey!!!


I know I promised a picture, but BloggerBot is acting up and doesn't want to upload the picture.

Here's a link for those with a flickr account. Word.

It's been a long time...

I started work today, mostly orientation stuff. I also got to see my cute little ultralight laptop (Dell Latitude x300). It's definitely light, which is all I know about it because they haven't given me a passowrd to access it yet--that comes tomorrow.

Sarah is enjoying law school as much as any first year, which is to say not that much, but she seems to be working her way into a routine.

Maggie is doing fine, she isn't thrilled about us being gone during the day, but she gets exercise in the morning rather than at midday like she was getting. It's a new routine for her, too, I guess.

I'll be in Atlanta this weekend dropping off the Corolla. In related news, I just got my DC drivers' license, which took only 30 minutes. I was prepared for an all day affair a la the Georgia DMV, but was pleasantly surprised by the first efficient DMV office I've ever been in.
