Today at 8:30 am, DC began accepting marriage applications from same-sex couples . A big step in the right direction for equality and my congratulations to all of those who will be able to take advantage of this new law.

weekend round-up
August 10th, 2009
Busy weekend! On Friday evening we went to Jazz in the Garden at the National Gallery sculpture garden. I rode my bike down there to meet Matt after he got off work, and it’s a good thing we got there early because the spots on the grass filled up super fast. That place gets packed! From our blanket on the north side of the garden, it was impossible to see the band and sometimes harder to hear the music… I guess it was more about being outside on a nice, Friday evening than anything else!
On Saturday morning we went on a quick run from my parents house in HoCo; it’s really weird now to trace my old running path from high school, especially when so much has changed there. It was followed with a delicious brunch/lunch, before we headed off to Baltimore for Mark and Abby’s wedding! A picture of the lovely cake, just for Jill.
And a view of beautiful B-more from where we stayed. Natty-Boh man is wayyy in the background.
Yesterday we drove back home, and despite the intense heat decided to bike our way down to the Corcoran to see the William Eggleston exhibit called Democratic Camera, Photographs and Video, 1961–2008 . It was a pretty interesting and eclectic set of color prints from throughout his career, many of them just mundane detail shots of life in Memphis and the south in the past 50-some years.
Sitting outside on the steps afterwards, Matt ponders the meaning of life. Or, what’s for dinner tonight?

Somewhat old news, but… Redskins tight end
Chris Cooley is getting married today to a former Skins cheerleader who actually got fired from the squad for dating him. This event is my excuse for posting this photo of my brush with fame and glory.
But seriously Cooley is the man — and I’m glad that JJ and I waited in line for 2 hours to meet him, even though it involved getting trampled by a short-person with a crutch. This was worth it.
spin the bottle
April 14th, 2008

Still a bit in recovery mode so my deepest apology for the belated post. We attended a beautiful wedding in Leonardtown, MD over the weekend. I tried to show off by doing a head-first flip into the dance floor during our “spin the bottle” dance party. Yeah, that didn’t work out so well…
Good times had by all and congrats to Mark and Kristy.

Congrats to the newlyweds, Brian and Cat! The wedding was at the lovely
University of Maryland Chapel. The ensuing reception consisted of an
intense dance-party celebration.
