a dc visit

i met suz fall of 2010. she was in one of my political science classes. she was always so bubbly, outgoing, sassy and smart. i didn't think i was cool enough to be her friend. the next semester we were interns together. she was my life savor. she created a social calendar for the interns complete with pot luck lunches and dessert runs. i would go into her office when i needed a break. we'd chat, down our cokes and eat chocolate. 

i flew into dc super early yesterday. the day was full of to do lists and fires to put out. it was a long day. i had about had it by the time i got in a cab to meet up with suz. but just like old times she was my life savor. we spent the next few hours catching up, sharing stories, complaining about the government and eating way too much food. 

there is just something about a good friend. someone who knows and cares about you. and last night i needed a good friend! i love that dc holds some of my most favorite people. i just wish my trips were longer ;-) 

and i'm back

i just wanted to thank everybody for their comments and notes from my last post. sometimes just some sweet notes makes everything better. i don't want this blog to turn into an infertility blog. simply because infertility doesn't define us, it's is simply a trial we are dealing with. our life is full of so many other wonderful things that i want to share. but sometimes, just like everybody else in this world, i have a bad day. a day where i just need to cry and write. and then i get nice notes. and it makes it all okay. thank you thank you!

in other news....i just got back from a short trip to the wonderful dc. this was my first time there this year and i was excited to be back. 

honestly i was there less than 48 hours but it was a great trip. i even got to see my cute cousin katie and her adorable izzy. we had a blast a dinner (thanks katie!!!). i'm so sad i didn't get any pictures. i'll be better next time. 

it was freezing my first day. i may have walked 15 mins in the pouring rain. but it's okay. there is just something special about dc. good thing i'll be going back plenty this year. maybe the mr. can make it one time with me. 

a quick picture of the washington memorial i took at 6:45 am via cab. love waking up to this! 

now back to work. or i guess now back to playing catch-up at work. happy wednesday friends!
