Things I've learned since I came to Washington...

A random list of things I've come to realize since I've arrived in this wonderful city:

1. how to spell thesaurus
2. Oprah's book club has some excellent selections.
3. Martha Washington was not that great looking, but she was extremely interesting. Random fact - she buried two husbands and four children in her lifetime.
4. Learning to be independent is exhilirating - and kind of fun.
5. Buffets that have Chinese food and pasta next to each other are not good.
6. The Toasted Marshmallow Mocha at Starbucks IS good.
7. Having a Barnes and Noble within blocks of your work causes one to spend money involuntarily.
8. The metro is convenient and inconvenient at the same time.
9. Walking a mile is not at all far. Walking 9 miles is far.
10. The zoo is not that great. Mount Vernon is pretty great though.

more to come....
