I have a mosquito bite on my face

I do. It's pretty annoying.

  • Fourth of July weekend was a much needed respite from my daily schedule, complete with barbecuing, board games, and fireworks. This year I watched the fireworks standing in a crosswalk in Adams Morgan. The view was surprising good!

  • Today I've been trying, with limited success, to de-clutter my room. Since I'm moving again at the end of the month, I thought it was time to finally unpack the last two boxes from when I moved a year ago. It's all the stuff I didn't want to deal with then, but dealing with it now isn't any more appealing. It's also laundry day... another chore that I hate.

  • Later this week I'll be housesitting for some friends. They have three cats, so I'm kind of psyched about it! :) I miss having pets, especially since my mom's been emailing me photos of her new puppy.

  • Still no job. Still trying not to freak out about it. I've mostly been successful, except for an embarrassing period this afternoon when I went in to full on panic mode. It's hard not to get a bit discouraged after five months of failed job hunting.



Hope everyone is well, and if you're in the US that you had a nice holiday weekend! :)

Hang in there Alex. I also heard from a librarian that things will open up in the fall (at DCPL and other libraries). Until then go out and have fun and don't be too serious. It's hard for me as well.

Glad you had a good fourth.

Are you anywhere near Faifax? I've relocated close so perhaps we could grab a coffee sometime.

I'm still in Silver Spring now, but I'll be back in the Vienna area in August. We should definitely get together some time!
