DC so far...
Well my trip to DC has been good thus far. I took off from P-burg around 7 am yesterday and had a pretty non-eventful drive. I was even able to squeeze in a little shopping at the Prime Outlet malls in Hagerstown I love hitting the Hager store there to stock up on business casual attire. Also made a trip into the Sketcher store. I made it into DC around 1 and got checked into my hotel. I had to go into the office for a few hours. Around 4:30 I was back in my hotel and, though I was extremely tired, convinced myself to go and run in the gym there. I managed to push myself harder than I ever have - I ran faster and longer than ever before! Some of that has to do with my current anger/frustration build up...more on that in another post. After my run I really wasn't ready to go back to my room, so I went for a walk. I really haven't seen many of the DC sights since I visited here in 5th grade. I walked about 5 files around town - I got picks of the Washington Monument, the State Capital, Museum of Natural History, and few others I can't remember. Today was a full day of work. I got off at the same time as yesterday and pushed myself to repeat my run like yesterday. Man am I sore - but hey, it's helping with the feelings I mentioned earlier. They have a pool next to the gym, so after running I took a quick shower to rinse off then swam and relaxed for about 30 mins. Back to the room to shower, and now I'm on my way to Crystal City mall to stop by the Apple Store, Best Buy, Virgini Tobacco Company, and whatever else cool store catches my eye. I'm REALLY looking forward to drinking a beer while I wait for my pizza at California Pizza Place! If you've never had one of their pizzas, then you're missing out. Tomorrow is work as normal. I probably won't get into too much at night. Same goes for work on Thursday. However, Thursday evening I'm meeting up with an old Army buddy of mine for dinner and drinks. His wife is out of town this week so who knows where we'll end up before the night is through! Let's hope I get some pictures - no matter what I get in to!!! ;-) Well, I'm at my stop now. I promise to work on the other post that I mentioned on my train ride back. Thanks for reading. Hope all is well with you!!!
