To start off...

They say a picture is worth 1000 words.

This blog started as my personal goal to post a picture each day of my first year living in Washington, D.C. 4 years later, the objective has changed and my posts are much less frequent. I write when I am inspired by an event or experience and do my best to capture feeling and intrigue with the photographs I take. My hope is that somewhere between the pictures and words, you have a glimpse of the inspiration behind each one and that you may experience through them some of the joy and emotion that urges me to share.

Party in the U.S.A.

Day 42: Okay so this past weekend I stopped for some Chinese food. I ordered my orange chicken from the Chinese woman behind the corner and sat down in the empty place to wait. As I sat there "Party in the USA" came on. Thrilled at both the irony of hearing the song in a Chinese place and the fact that I haven't heard it in forever, I happily sang along. As the song was coming to an end, two women walked in with the worst mullets ever (do you say worst in the "worst hair ever sense" or best as in "amazing mullet" sense?). Anyway it doesn't end there. The ridiculous (AMERICAN) Chinese experience continued when I saw "B-B-Q Spare Ribs" on the menu and then Bon Jovi came on...When I finally got my food and walked out I was laughing and I only hope that the man I passed on my way out was able to enjoy it all too. I got a picture of the mullet ladies too, but seeing as they didn't catch me taking the pics that's way creepy, so here's just the menu..haha
