GOT IT.

Ladies and Gentleman, I am one step closer to total world domination. As of Thursday, August 19th, I have accepted an offer to work on Capitol Hill in the support of an esteemed Congressman's legislative procedures and constituent aid.

Effective immediately, I am the red, white and blue. I am George Washington, John Adams, and Abraham Lincoln COMBINED - firing toward the Moon at a million miles an hour between Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong. I am a Bald Eagle with talons bared. I am fireworks on the Fourth of July and more American than apple pie.

Oh, also. . . I am a lowly intern.

For a refresher on Capitol Hill:


My explanation: As described, Capitol Hill is where I want to be. However, if you don't have pre-existing connections, forget about a paid position. Nearly everyone makes their way by putting in their dues as an intern, first. So that is what I shall do. And I couldn't be any happier to.




But money doesn't grow on trees and if it did, I would probably know because they would most likely be in Georgetown from the looks of local residents. So, I found gainful employment through my gym, Washington Sports Club. Although the whole thing is still in process and I have not yet begun, I am a 'Welcome Team Member' - aka I swipe your card, smile, hand you a towel and exclaim "Enjoy your workout!" But for being down the street, free gym membership, beautiful clientèle, and decent pay, I can't complain.


Lastly, I went on my last 'Craigslistventure'. Thats one word. Contacted a stranger per usual, went to her place (where she had her 'man parts' shaped candle) with Scott and picked up this chair and ottoman for 35 bones!

All in all, a hugely successful week. Stay tuned for the recap of the weekend on Monday where I'll record the debauchery to occur this weekend as the "bros" come to town.
