Fond memories of this city. First visited as a young girl at the age of 3 (I remember barfing on BearWare, my lifelong stuffed animal companion), then moved here as a young woman – it was my very first job out of college and the first time I was really “on my own” in the world. Now I’m visiting at the start of 2011, taking a moment to breathe and get ready for all the changes and challenges this year will bring.
The train I’m on is late… But in order to keep the other, non-late trains on time, our train keeps pulling over to stop to let them by. Thank you, Amtrak! This makes absolutely no sense to me.
Carnations are the comic sans of the flower universe. While virtually no females over the age of 14 would welcome a delivery of these stems, it seems some florist has actually found an appropriate calling for them in an arrangement presumably designed for guys. Perched atop a tumbler filled with amber-colored chunks of plastic made to resemble beer, these beauties convey class and sophistication where roses or orchids fall short.
This car was parked outside the metro in DC. Can’t imagine it belongs to a fellow HP employee but ya never know.
Good find by @staciacnn!
