I am currently watching the Denver vs. New England game. NE is ahead 13-0. It’s only the 2nd quarter, so we will see what happens. My roomies like football, so it is on a lot here, but as you know I don’t really care.
Anyhow, I have been quite the past few day and that is because my parents were here this last weekend and I was playing tour guide. I am actually quite good at it, maybe that will become my new career. That could be cool. I would meet a lot of people, but I think I would like to be in a different DC. It’s kind of boring here. Not as boring as J-town, but still kind of boring. I guess any city is boring when you are actually working and living there as opposed to visiting.
My parents had a cute hotel. At first I thought it was kind of old, but then I found it charming. It was built in 1910, so it’s a little old fashioned with a tiny bathroom, but something about it was just too cute! Plus the hotel was only a few blocks from just about everything, including the White House and a great restaurant called Les Halles it is an Anthony Bourdain restaurant. Les Halles is my new favorite place in the whole world. The food is so good and the waiters are so friendly! I am salivating just thinking about the food. Anybody up for really good French food?
When I wasn’t trying to sneak off to Les Halles for great food and the slim chance of running to Anthony Bourdain, I visited just about every site you can visit in DC. I have included some pictures. We had great weather here, and it is finally acting like fall, in fact, too much like fall. I never see the sun. I get up before the sun then ride the metro to sit in an office without a window for eight hours only to ride the metro and arrive back without seeing the sun all day! Ok, that’s not totally true, but I wish I could have just a little more sun time!
I feel like I am forgetting something, but I can’t be because nothing exciting has happened recently.
Happy Birthday Toi! I know this is posted a day late, but I wrote it on your birthday!!!
