Hello again...

It’s taken me a little longer this week to post because, in all honesty, I have been stuck in the snow!

Washington D.C. has officially, after almost a week of snow, broken all of its previous snowfall records. It’s been snowing on and off since Friday, and I haven’t really left the building since. I haven’t worked since Friday afternoon, and I’m actually starting to miss it. The original plans I had for this past weekend have been pushed up to the holiday weekend, which was terrific, because it’s a visit from my mum and there was no hassle to move it a week.

Of the few times I did go out, the group went out to Vapiano for Desiree’s birthday celebration.

The restaurant is actually really close to our apartment and is really unique, because at this time there are only about five in the country. Instead of being waited on, it's pretty much self service, and you use this card to track your purchases instead of worrying about separate checks.

Other than that little outing, I’ve spent most of my time inside. I’m not afraid of snow, although I don’t particularly like it, but the weather here has immobilized everything. Being from New England, I have seen my share of big snowstorms, the difference here is how devastating and paralyzing it is.

I’m used to the sound of salt trucks and plows throughout the night, but here I only hear a few people out shoveling on occasion.

I’ve been feeling the affects of cabin fever, and am actually missing my job. If I have work tomorrow, it’ll be the first day all week, and then President’s Day is after this weekend. I hope that with the snow ending, this weekend I will have far more adventures and be able to have more fun experiences to share.

Stick with me!

Until next time,
