I just finished eating the first meal I cooked on the grill this year- it will be the first of many. I love wonderful weather, it’s been great all week long. I hope the weather keeps up- I want to try and get out more after work. My ideal after work situation is to either enjoy the cityscape as people go about their business, or just sitting on my porch and enjoying a drink (the Margaret Landry approach). I haven’t had a chance to do that, I spent a lot of last week doing errands after work- but at least now I have my haircut and my grill is now ready for summer.
Friday I enjoyed some Happy Hour fun with Melissa, we went to Union Jacks and I was exposed to a lot of the social life and norms of people at NIH- and I really need to say that sometimes it blows me away. I won’t go into which direction. Last night was Cinco de Mayo and I celebrated with my friends at Guapo’s (I mean you have to go have a Mexican dinner right? I made it an all Mexican day with lunch at Taco Bell). Afterwards we went back to Watch Hill Lane to play Apples to Apples (I really need to get this game), and Super Jeopardy (thanks Diana for your old school inclinations, and yes you do blow it very well). To end the night we sat in a stupor watching the rest of Armageddon.
Today I shopped Tyson’s Corner, starting to get some new warez for the season. Once again I enjoy cruising down Route 7 on a sunny day.
This week will be exciting, I found out I have to go to Canada for work- my first real business trip! Not as cool as Emily’s (she’s going to Paris) but it’ll do.
