Good luck, Hil! Is this one in Rosslyn? At least you can easily get to school and Courthouse and such from there--there's some good stuff up Wilson Blvd.
Though I admit, this morning I was loving how close I am to A-M, walked over for brunch with a friend.
It's lovely weather out today! But I tried to go out on my balcony and was reminded how living in the city is just filthy. I used half a roll of paper towels and a lot of windex, trying to get just a little bit of it clean. What I really need is a hose. Just becuase there's so much dust/dirt that settles on the window sill and stuff. BLECH.

Yeah. I kind of wanted to be closer to stuff, but it's a good apartment at a good price, and I've been realizing that I'm just not going to find someplace that's got everything I want, at least not for what I can reasonably afford to pay.
Strawberry shortcake is a wonderful idea for Aidan's birthday cake.
Maisy is Owen's favorite, too. I think it's the large, simple blocks of bright colors that make her so attractive to him. Her friend Charley freaks me out, though. He's not quite right.
Deena, wish the birthday boy a belated birthday for me, please?
Otherwise, I got nuthin'.
Oh, yeah, Happy Belated, Aidan!
Nova, how was the showl?
Oh! It was really cute. Mostly a revue of songs from the perspective of different types of dogs, I think that anybody who finds dog behavior natively entertaining would enjoy the musical.
It was fun, too, because it's in a tiny, 50-person theater in West Hollywood, so the audience is right on top of the actors, who are excellent at evoking dogginess. The costumes and sets are ridiculously low budget, but they work quite well.
Anybody that likes musicals in the L.A. area should consider checking it out before they close on the sixteenth. Info here.
Happy Birthday plus one, to Aidan. I wish I could eat Strawberry Shortcake with you, Spikelet.
I just turned on PBS and there's a really surreal show about crafts with children. First, they were sticking gumdrops onto styrofoam balls with toothpicks. They didn't say why. Then they were making pomanders and one of them said, "They're preserved just like the Egyptians preserved mummies." The hosts are cheerful in a way that I usually associate with amphetamines.
Happy Belated Birthday to Aidan! Give him a kiss for me.
Deena, insent.
Not sure if this is serious:
Are cats for true Christians?
Is it appropriate for a Christian to own a cat, in light of their past pagan religious affiliation and the medical information that is now coming to light? -J.R., U.S.A.
Medical information?
