getting older faster

I woke up this morning when I dumped a glass of water on myself by mistake while attempting to answer the wake up call at 5:30am. I woke up with Ben's cold. Dangit, Ben. I ran my 5 under a full moon at super-slow sick people pace, running laps around the boring suburban oddity called National Harbor that we're staying in.
This hotel, aka Death By Mini-Cheesecake, is obscene. It's big, really big, and it has a gigantic atrium and a very Vegas feel to it.
Anyway.
Yesterday was big protest day, and we were on CNN and just about every other news network not harboring a rightwing wacko agenda. Today we were on capitol hill taking our members to meet with their lawmakers. I love being around members. It makes me remember why I go through all this. It's been exhausting. I fantasized all day about taking a hot bath and going to bed early. I'm on it.
Tomorrow I move into the city, staying in a nice boutique hotel in Dupont Circle through Fri. I can't wait for Fri.
