There and back again...

It was actually very beautiful out. Not at all cold and the snow falling constantly but not in an aggressive way. If you had snow tires I don't think driving would even be a problem. The metro was slow, but honestly not much worse than it is on a normal weekend. Anyway, made it out to Alison's and ate a lot. Her parents had the party catered (with waiters in tuxedos...) and had expected over 100 guests. About 30 made it - not bad considering. It seems to be a DC thing, catered parties in private homes (it is a different way of life here for sure). They served (among other things..) these butternut squash quesadillas - yummy!!!

In the "my life in DC is weird" vein, one of the other guests at this party was a former Toronto Argonaut. Nice guy - played with them in the 1999 - 2002 period. But seriously small world and I do wonder why this sort of thing happens to me all the time here...
