so i finally took a minute to get new icons and it's been years and years since i've gotten new ones. yay! that's the most exciting thing ever.
in dc i forget that you have to carry everything. you can't just throw something into your car and take it home, you have to carry it on the metro or lug it on foot. so today i made a long shopping trip on foot to get hangers and a mirror, among other necessities. it was so heavy, but i lugged it all home, and then i hung my mirror perfectly, and then it BROKE! because the freaking hook came off the wall. my money and hard work all WASTED! so i don't know what i'll do about that.
in positive news, i have solved my problems with my bank, my phone, and my internet. i am growing rather proficient at riding the metro: tomorrow morning will be my dry run practicing going to work early in the morning, because i need the practice during the rush hour traffic. on sunday i will be buying my week-long pass for the metro, so i'm excited about that.
more people are coming to dc bit by bit, so it's nice to see the group filling out. my "mission" is not here yet, for those who are in on that. i put together my letter-writing list today, so i will be starting on that soon.
i'm trying to get over my cold so i can drink without making my throat sore. everyone is drinking like fish, and i'm going to get in on that action soon. speaking of action, i could use some, i decided. washington dc, here i come.
really, tomorrow, i'm going to dry run the metro, hunt for a mirror, hunt for "the caucus rocks us" shirts, and then sit around the apartment and follow caucus coverage...i love being here with political nerds. we're having a caucus party!!!!!!!! yay dc, yay.
love you all, and letters shall follow.
if i have not told you i will be sending you letters, comment with your address and i'll add you to my list!
