inauguration: they came, they saw, they froze!
I’m not saying that having them come here hasn’t been stressful and more than a small pain in the ass, but I am glad that they got to come here and share in this historic event. They got out of...

DC: stomping grounds
Used to be a time when if you called me up and said “Feel like walking around the city today?” I’d be hard-pressed to say yes unless it was a date, or there was the promise of booze or sex...
photos: Fröhliche Weihnachten!
Isn’t he so adorable for the 5 seconds I got him to sit still? This was one of about 15 photos, and the only one he’d stay for. He knows the stay command, but he just wasn’t into it. With...
