washington monument from the lincoln memorial.
me squishing the washing monument! yes!
you can see the washington monument reflected in the vietnam memorial.
whew, thats a lot. but it was fun. and hot. it was really warm that day. it was also a little surreal to see all of these things. it was hard for me to actually comprehend that i was actually there, seeing this historic place. i've seen it all before right? movies, TV, ya know. but i liked it.
i also go myself a job here in williamsburg! its going to be great. i'm working at the movie theater that is right by the apartment. they give employees and family free movies! yes! i won't have to pay for any movies this summer! which is awesome. i start tomorrow (thursday). starting a job is always a little nerve wracking, but i feel okay about it.
in knitting news, i finally decided what to do with some alpaca silk that i had lying around. oh yes, i decided that i wanted to make the Anthropologie Inspired Scarf. so i started it last night, and since it is knit horizontally, that means i needed to cast on enough stitches to make it long enough. i ended up with about 328 stitches. yeah. not so fun, but i really think it would be a nice and cushy scarf! i am going to soilder through, its only about 28 rows. ugh, wish me luck. here's a pic of my three rows.
its a little dark, but you can see allllll those stitches! fun fun!anyway, i have to do some laundry. yaaayyy!

D.C. is fun! Try finding the ginormous Einstein statue next time. It is the Shakepearean garden.... and if I went back I'd stop and eat Indian food in Georgetown....
Glad to hear you got a job.... worked at Crossroads Theatre AFTER I graduated from Western for three weeks. I saw a ton of movies that summer and so did John....
Have fun!
