this is the perfect saturday morning to make pancakes, read the 9/11 commission report, and update my blog!

yeah, i have been getting complaints! sorry! anyway, in bullet form:

- i have learned that, unlike mitch hedburg's description of a banana, spinach IS like a traffic light. green is good. yellow is more like, slow down, don't eat that spinach.
- a guy came up to me while i was eating lunch in the park. he said i was very photogenic and he would like to take my picture if i came back on friday. he gave me his business card and i learned that his name was: Gaylord Tissueboo.
(best. name. ever.)
- what i am reading. (it's really scary, by the way. don't read too much in one sitting.)
- WHY WAS THIS left on our doorstep? WHY? WHY? the larouchies are out to get me, i think.
- yesterday i got off work early to go deliver a press release to the hill. i was going to leave my stuff at work, but my boss was like, oh...you don't need to come back. also, don't i sound cool calling it "the hill"? yeah, you know it.
- in every representative's office, all the interns were sitting around watching TV. in every single one. maybe it's because it was the last friday before the recess, but maybe being a congressional intern is a big joke. or both.
- i hope EVERYONE is going to new york next weekend for ben's birthday party. we are going to bring him a pretty sweet "birthday cake" too.
- i'm hungry. i'm going to follow up on the pancakes part of the title of this post.
but i updated!
