I love this city. Everyone is so unabashedly political, firm in their beliefs yet willing to argue (reletively) goodnaturedly. Plus, turning a corner to a sudden prospect of the Capitol or the Washington Monument is bloody cool. Tomorrow this really becomes home, when we finally get the keys to our apartment, and I can't wait.
Meantime, I'm temping (again!) and looking for a hill job or something else political or maybe non-profit. So many of my friends out here are doing really cool things like organic farming and fund-raising for children's advocacy, that I'm excited to get involved.
On a more fun note, a group of us ate at Marrakesh on Saturday night. It was an experience unlike any other restaurant I have ever been to. Hand washing, seven courses, belly dancing. Very fun. I recommend it to anyone visiting DC.
Well, off to pack and maybe watch the Daily Show. And thanks to the people who posted comments welcoming me back to the blog!

Still waiting
On my new digs. Just a few more nights in a hotel or rented room and I will finally have a home.

My hiatus is over
So, I made it to DC!! Well, Arlington really, but my job is in the District. I am so excited to be here, though I'll be even more excited when I can finally move into my apartment next Monday. Pictures to follow as soon as I can manage.
