Well, arrived alive in DC, though I can't exactly say uneventfully. Turns out one of Fat Fred's minions, Mini-Fred, stowed away in my camera bag. I probably wouldn't have noticed except he stuck his head out in Atlanta, and someone noticed him and commented to me. Well, this Congress is going to be more interesting than I thought...

DC hasn't changed much, at least as seen from a cab riding from the airport. Construction going on some places, traffic, big monumental buildings housing government offices. Yep, it's DC. Well, things will get the unofficial kick-off this evening, when I meet with the rest of the Nominating Committee members for dinner and a practice session.

As I suspected, much of the blue funk of the previous week cleared off as soon as I was moving, and on the road again. I've got my reasons for feeling the anticipatories this year, but now that it's happening it's no longer anticipatory.

That would be fatfred the otter (do not confuse him with Skippy, who shares that journal), and mini_fred the otter. Mini-Fred shares his journal with Alfonz da Noze, who looks a lot like Mini-Fred for some reason. We think they're clones.
