Awesome

Things that are awesome this week:

1. Turkey bacon. It's like bacon, but slightly better for you. This comes with the caveat that turkey bacon is gross when it's not cooked right, like this morning's at IHOP. Disappointment.
2. Getting to see my boyfriend AND my best friend in the same day, however brief. This also counts for last week.
3. Combining Benadryl cream AND hydrocortisone cream for ultimate bed bug itch stoppage. These bites are like a thousand times worse than the rashes I get from Tide. Of course the combination is probably making my skin turn into some kind of radioactive sludge or something. At least it doesn't itch.
4. Unfailing loyalty from someone else's dog. One of Julie's labs hasn't left my side since I got here. Kinda cute in a sad, he probably misses his family kind of way.

Things I've learned this week...

1. Bed bugs suck. Straight up. They sprayed for them in Dennis's apartment last Thursday, but since I've been here, I've been eaten enough to look like I have the chicken pox. Or maybe just regular pox. Except only on my right arm and foot.
2. You can jump start a car with a corroded battery. Not necessarily should, but you can. Or, you can use one of your AAA calls to have them come and jump start your boyfriend's car instead. Membership is already worthwhile.
3. The BEST chicken salad sandwich in the world can be found at Union Station in DC. Amazing.

More later.
