So, meteorologists have issued a Heat Advisory warning for us in the DC metro area. Temperatures are to reach the mid 90's but with humidity they say it will feel like the triple digits!!
With that said, I am in the air conditioning at work and will head home at the end of the day and enjoy the pool if it is not too crazy up there. If not, I am going to stay home tonight, do laundry and enjoy the air conditioned comfort of my home.
6 more days until I leave for Oregon. Hope to see some of you readers while I am there!!

Enjoyable but Rainy Day
So, today I had plans for brunch with a few friends. So we met at Paper Moon for a buffet brunch. What a wonderful spread. There was make your own omelette's, eggs, eggs benedict, tortellini, french toast, bacon, sausage, many types of salads, fruit, dessert, and much more!
The four of us had too much too eat but it was great company. We sat and digested, had some more coffee and decided to walk around Goergetown for a bit. Since it was raining we tried to spend as much time inside as we could.
Oguz had to meet a friend for meditation at 5:30 so at about 4:45 we split and went home. Rusen was gracious enough to drive me home rather than taking the bus and having to walk in the rain. The weather has worsened as the day has progressed but this is because of tropical depression Barry heading our way. at least Barry only reached tropical storm forces for a short while and he did not become a hurricane.
So I am home now and not even thinking about dinner. I am hoping my neighbor Gary gets home from Philadelphia safely then we can sit on the benches under cover outside our building, smoke cigarettes and talk about our weekend. I am really going to miss that when I move to Baltimore.
Enough of my blabbering. Hope you had a great weekend.

Swollen Ankles
So, those of you who need to take water pills, make sure you do. After forgetting to fill my prescription for too long, my ankles, which happen to be quite small in comparison to the rest of me, were the size of my calves. UGH!!!
So, I decided to take it easy for the next day or so. After reading in Medlineplus.gov about Edema, I at least had a better understanding why my ankles where so HUGE!!
Anyway, I did go out for a short while today. I took the bus to Silver Spring and spent too much money. I was trying to save as much as I could for my visit to Oregon. So much for that. I did by a new ceramic flat iron that will work better on my hair, some nail strengthener, and a new pair of Nike flip-flops for only $10.00 regularly $25.00!
Aren't you glad I gave you all those details? I am now home in the air conditioning wishing I was in Boston, with my parents, sister and brother-in-law. He just graduated with his AA degree and the gang was headed to Newport, RI for the day. SIGH
I leave for PDX in a little over a week and I am so excited I could cry!!
So I sit here in my apartment thinking about heading to the roof to get some sun or even take a dip in the pool (God I am going to miss having pools on the roof when I move to Baltimore) but have not decided what I am going to do for the evening.
Hope you have a good weekend. Talk to you soon!
