Lookout Capitol Hill thers a new boy in town!
Ahhh its summer time and that means its time to relax and do a whole lot of nothing, right? I really would love to know who created that misnomer; I’d love to send him an email from my computer at work. I realize that last statement makes me sound discontent with the current state of affairs which is not true. I have a wonderful internship ( Read more... ) -
Super Bowl "Monday" should be a Holiday
Who wants to work the day after the Super Bowl, I know I don't. Sadly life goes on, unless you happen to be frozen in Chicago right now ( Read more... ) -
Labor Day weekend is going to kill me
So I'm just going to put it out there that drinking heavily for four straight days is in no possible way healthy. Nearly getting in a fights with townies because your drunk and standing in line at the driver thru at Taco Bell at 4 am is probably also not a good life decision. In general this weekend has been fantastic and reaffirms my obsession ( Read more... ) -
I'm an upperclassman?
Apparently I'm a junior now, which at least for the time being is positively amazing. Half of the junior class lives within a block of my house and the other half wonders over here quite often. Just the front porch alone makes a lot of the rough times freshman year worth it. There really isn't a lack of things to do or people to do it with ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Thank god the extreme heat blanketing the DC area and most of the eastern half of the country has finally eased. According to Washington Post Radio metro was handing out water…even though water (or for that matter any food or drink at all) is illegal on the metro. I guess you know it’s hot when the metro police allow you to drink on the metro, I ( Read more... ) -
Sporting News
Well it's the fourth day of Redskins training Camp here in DC and I swear you'd think the super bowl was starting. I’ve never quite understood the obsession with football that some people have. Not to say that I don't love watching football, but I love hockey, baseball, and lacrosse just as much. Unfortunately this is only a precursor to what ( Read more... ) -
What I would accomplish with a little patience
One of the interesting things I found yesterday has also given me and incredibly wicked idea. On http://www.lightsideup.com/ a group of 12 students completely fillip a friend’s room. No they didn’t switch his bed from one corner to another; they put it on the ceiling. Now I would love to ( Read more... ) -
"It's a book about golf"
Being in a military family I have access to something called the PX. Think of it as a Target/Macy’s/Best buy; only it’s cheaper and there’s no sales tax. I’ve been there before, but my mom and I made a trip there this afternoon and I’m wondering why I didn’t take advantage of this earlier. Not only is it a great place for clothes, but there also ( Read more... ) -
Barf Bags?
There is an old saying that “it's so hot you can fry and egg outside." Apparently this was true Tuesday and Monday. According to Doug Hill (ABC 7 weatherman and genuine nice guy when I pass him in the newsroom) all you needed was an egg and some tinfoil ( Read more... ) -
"Sounds Better In the Song"
It weekends like these that make a six day work week all worth it. Not saying I feel like working six days a week every week, but I went off better than expected ( Read more... )
