DC snowbound baby boom

Today’s Express had an article about an upcoming mini-baby-boom in DC:

Outside the white December snow piled higher. [...] They grew restless.

They looked at each other. And then they – well, you know.

“Once a day,” [she] admitted. “Twice a day,” [he] interjected.

(Yes, I was a bit surprised to read this while eating my morning bagel!)

What they want.. and WHEN to give it to them

Ha.

(That kind of thing is funny in small doses.)

Significant digit

I just added a significant digit to my savings account balance. Woo-hoo!

Towers

I love going up in towers. Here’s a list of some I’ve visited:

• St. Paul UMC church tower (Houston, Texas)
• Tower of London (London, England)
• Scott Monument (Edinburgh, Scotland)
• Menara Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)
• Oriental Pearl Tower (Shanghai, China)
• Old Post Office Tower (Washington, DC)

And, I hope to visit the Washington Monument soon…

Here’s a video that shows the Scott Monument’s tight stairway:

Fridge report

My local Safeway opened this morning after being closed two days due to this snowy weather. Good thing, ’cause my fridge was completely empty. They were all out of milk and eggs, and were running low on cookies. Kudos for having all check-stands open for once.

Note: there might be a baby boom in DC come November…
