aseToday my roommate was clocked doing 35 mph in a 25 mph zone. On her bicycle. How awesome is that? (She got off with a warning. I said I'd get her a cyclist's speedometer for her half-birthday.)
My adventure thisafternoon evening is making nice with Ubuntu. Ha ha ha. And I didn't want to deal with a learning curve on a camera, ha ha ha. I can barely remember the moral equivalent of tying my shoelaces in code, if I ever knew it. Moya will soldier on! If only I can make the sound card and wireless work!
This evening I also made pasta and sauce for the first time since I moved. It's been too hot. (It's worth mentioning here that I was raised on pasta sauce not from a jar, and still tend to think of jar-sauce as Not Right.) Fortunately, the grocery store had a sale on ground beef this week, so I'm now stuffed on carbs and meatsauce, and have some stashed for lunch.
Friday night I went out drinking with co-workers on the Waterfront, which was devastatingly beautiful at sunset. If there is a more quintessentially DC moment than walking the mile from Foggy Bottom metro, past the GW dorms, past the bridge with someone's possessions stacked beneath the overpass, through Georgetown and along the little boats turned floating party pads, for the purpose of standing around getting buzzed until midnight with people you see for maybe five minutes during the day - even though you work in the same little building - I don't know what is. Good times in fabulous weather.
BTW, locals: anyone going to be around next weekend? I'm thinking of doing a labor day/"well, never had a housewarming" party thing. I supply snacks, you BYOB.
