Today I went downtown to one of the best cities in the world to get myself all set up for work. (exciting!) In the morning Daddy and I rode the train into Union Station. Daddy's job is in DC, but it's nice to imgine that his job was only an ulterior motive for holding my hand as I nervously entered the busy commuter side of the city. In the past Washington has been a destination for amusement whether it be the smithsonians or a monument of some sort. But today, I did the whole brave city girl thing riding the metro and walking around town taking care of business, and I loved every last single moment of it. I loved being lost in the hurried crowds of people all heading towards equally important purposes. I loved the crowded metro, the congested sidewalks, the sychronized trips across crosswalks. There's a certain enjoyment in being caught up in the anonymity of crowds. When I'm walking from place to place I'm not me, I am simply an entity of a mass moving towards a hundred different distinct locations. It was a fairly sucessful day accomplishing much and taking satisfaction in that accomplishment.
