a day in the life...

We did our commute today--a la regular style. Not too bad, except Dave, being the go-getter type he is, wants to be at work by 8:00 am. So that means a 6:10 departure from our house. No big deal, I wanted to get back into my early morning routine anyway. And I'm sure the baby will be up early too!

As I explore more of the area, it seems like one large 1970s/1980s era, WalMart-esque, sprawling, suburban sameness, at least Manassas proper. So--yeah, again with the sadness :(

I know there are prettier areas of DC, we just can't swing them and pay for law school simultaneously. Ah, the delights of living within our means. So--yeah, missing Seattle's beauty--big time.

Life is weird when you have no emotional connection to the place you find yourself. I'm sure that will change over time.

Though, I am beginning the baby supply acquisition phase. That is one bright spot!
More soon as we get reliable internet connections...
