It's been one week since my arrival and I'm getting a little more accustomed to my stomping grounds of the District. Life still pretty much feels like a dream, but reality is beginning to seep through the cracks in minor ways. At work on Monday, I felt like I had one of those days where I just didn't do anything right. But when you have days like those (and they happen more than once), you have to just snap out of it, accept that you're not perfect and vow to do better tomorrow. So that's what I tried to do - and it worked! I had a much better day today. I'll end this post on a positive note with a quick re-cap of the awesome weekend I had.
Last weekend was filled with trips to places like the Library of Congress (self-proclaimed government/history geek right here, guys)....
Farmer's markets...
An amazing bookstore filled with floor-to-ceiling used books and a charming shop owner...
A beautiful botanic garden...
A memorial that makes you understand why everyone says it's best to visit D.C. memorials after dark...
Cool museums...
And (of course) some necessary gelato.
My pedometer app said I walked 18 miles over the weekend, so YEAH. That's how much fun I had exploring the city. I can't wait to see more.
