super-fun workday: we interns took a guided special tour of the capital with the wife of one of our co-workers. as a press-person, she has full-time access to both houses, even (like now) when they're closed. she let us in and sam, rob and i hopped over banisters to get a better view. she also brought us into the speech-giving room where we took turns playing senators and got our pictures taken (probably quite verboten but how could you resist?) anywhere rob's digital camera shots are hilarious: i'm partial, of course, to senator ester and the intern senators. hey, that's a good name for a rock band.
i played scrabble online w/ miss becca, interrupted by a free lunch in honor of rob, intern #2's, going away. it being a beautiful day, we sat outside and basked.
oh, quiet, i got stuff done too. just less notably.
