I was in and out of DC in what amounted to a little more than 27 hours. You'd think that would not leave me much time for mischief and mayhem, but then you probably don't know me that well. The people that do ... well, they know better.
In 27 hours I managed to:
*Ride the Metro to and from the airport
*Get a good workout in at the Omni Shoreham hotel (love this place)
*Attend two separate conference sessions
*Wander thru Dupont Circle
*Visit with a friend from Cottey and her husband
*Crash a National Board of Realtors function
*Eat some really great mediterranian food (hummus, tabouli, baklava)
*Grab a beer at the airport
*Eat a Potbelly sandwich (mmmm)
*Drink some Bombay Sapphire and tonic(s)
*Sleep
*Meet Lynda Bird Johnson (yeah, she is who you think she is -- and very nice)
*Enjoy the gorgeous fall weather
I'll be back there the first part of November for another conference. I have seven days there then -- and I'll be visiting George Washington U and American U while I'm there to decide whether they are where I want to go -- or not.

Yup, that sounds just about how I would imagine you spending 27 hours in D.C. would be like.
it was some kind of crazy. Back again in a few weeks ... this time for a week. Imagine the mayhem that will ensue!
Okay, so I had no idea you blogged, let alone what name you blogged under. When you commented on my blog, I was like, "Who dat!" (sorry... been in NOLA for a week)
How did I not know this?!
Slow to catch on... I'm following now.
