SciWonk
Seersucker Thursday on the Hill. Everybody's wearin' it.
| SciWonk Thin Girl: black patent striped-wedges, grey slacks, black 3/4 sleeve sweater. |
|
| SciWonk The smell of summer magnolias south of the Library of Congress is fresh, lemony and sweet. |
|
| SciWonk Beside me on the Metro: a man playing Brickbreaker, wearing flip-up sunglasses like my dad wears. |
|
| SciWonk I really miss having a car when I'm buying provisions for a party. Heavy bags + no car = tough. |
|
| SciWonk My red silk dress was in the back of the closet, with the ski gloves. |
|
| SciWonk I'm feeling gratitude for the many people who are cleaning up the mountains of trash left after the Capitol Fourth concert. |
|
| SciWonk A woman wearing Victorian garb and a bonnet just got on the bus. Happy 4th of July. |
|
| SciWonk A mimosa tree is blooming at 12th + E SE, and the fragrance brings back my childhood days on Limestone Road. |
|
| SciWonk At lunch-time, there is only one thing that's better than lunch. |
|
| SciWonk On the Red Line to Glenmont: a woman with a 5-inch scar on her neck. |
|
| SciWonk Seen at 100 Caitol Plaza SE: jogger wearing t-shirt that reads, "Jesus Votes Democrat." |
|
| SciWonk Guy sitting in front of me on the Metro is wearing a cotton candy pink LaCoste with raggedy, popped collar. I do not recommend. |
|
| SciWonk Just saw the Thin Girl. Pretty federal blue top, taupe pants. Her hair has grown. |
|
| SciWonk Heatwave glittering-The 36 rumbles up-Hallowed Jenkins Hill. |

|
| SciWonk While sitting in a Committee markup, I have the sensation that I'm standing too closely underneath fireworks. |
|
| SciWonk Ugh. Over-air-conditioned office buildings. Like winter in June. |
|
| SciWonk Fear: does it more often arise from our experience... or from our inexperience? |
|
| SciWonk The produce guys tried to give $20 worth of produce for free. Love farmers' markets. |
