wait, i have a blog about living in dc?

it's nearing the (counts on fingers) 4th month anniversary of me working here at Brookings Exec Ed, it's been great
certain things could be better, but overwhelmingly i am pretty happy here and i feel like people really are invested in me
yes katarina got fired my first day and that scared the bejesus out of me...i know i wont feel total relief until i am on that cruise to alaska with my mom at the end of august (end of the 6 month trial period where i finally get benefits, annual leave, and things)

a lot has happened and i have been terrible at keeping record of it
ive stopped taking photos because im too exhausted to lug my cameras around (but yayyyy new camera!!)
also the weather got crappy here
and unfortunately all the canadians are back but i must must msut visit them
kailey came back! then she left (boooo!)

there was a frustrating month where i thought i could live with kailin
but then her female-only lifestyle encountered a guy and now she's the typical high schooler who is just trying to figure out looove.. ick

moved in may 31 to an apartment in van ness
cozy and compact, but will be good for me to not overspend on crap haha
need to save every dollar i can for sure
i adore my roommate Donte Donald (yes.) a 26 (?) year old who works in PR at the Economic Policy Institute, who is a bit forgetful and a little ditzy and definitely does not like doing his own dishes

ethan is undoubtedly happy for sure that ive moved out
niles and jessica's wedding went well
ive met his parents, his paternal grandparents, and his aunt. unfortunately his uncle passed and there's a chance i may go to the memorial service in a week..but at the very least i will be helping ethan through this time, which may involve giving his aunt company (who is a lovely lovely woman)
ethan's dad's art show in silver spring is beautiful, i really do like his pieces!

ethan and i went up for founder's day, which was really nice and a drunken mess for me
saw dam funk, his favorite keytarist ever lol
i also went to vassar's graduation last weekend which was nice to see meryl streep and cower in her heavenly presence

andy was here wtf without telling anyone but at least i got to eat two dinners with him in the same night with him and jason wu in rosslyn--pho and rays hell burger
then went to dupont to drink and play cards against humanity at The Board Room

speaking of which it's funny how matt, emily, and i are all living in van ness, too bad matt is leaving july
and joe got into law school! aaah
life

how quickly it moves~

and i think im gonna restart the documentary pledge...AFTER I WATCH NEW ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT ASLKLDOWFAJW'TW;APJOTWA
