"I still believe we can do what's right."

First night with the folks in town went well. After picking them up from the airport we headed over to Liberty Tavern in Arlington for some great food and drinks. I had a couple Founders Porters on draft. It was good but I think the coffee stout Andy and I made together was better. We sampled a bottle of it when we got home - pops agreed.

So now we're gearing up for a day of fun in this beautiful weather. Right now I'm rewatching Obama's awesome speech at George Mason on healthcare reform and sipping some coffee from Quartermaine. Today's schedule is as follows:


1. Pick up Darlene's wedding ring from Charleston Alexander
2. Check out the National Harbor (site of ceremony and reception)
3. Coffee tasting at Misha's in Old Town
4. Dinner at La Tasca in Old Town (site of rehearsal dinner)


I'll report back later. Cheers.

Okay, so I'm really not interested in rehashing every detail of my life over the past 10 months, and I don't want to go on about how I'm been so bad about blogging. If you've checked the site you know I've been bad at blogging!

Here's what you need to know: I'm getting married in two months; still in DC; made it through a couple blizzards and concluded that I hate the snow more than almost anything; switched jobs and now work for a nonprofit that advocates for human rights for the disability community; going to the gym frequently; nearly certain that I am happier now than I have ever been at any point in my life.

The 'rents are in town this weekend. I'll post some photos about our adventures!
