Yesterday, we went to DC to check out the cherry blossom festival – post rain they were at about 70% bloom, still lovely – it was overcast, made for mediocre photography, but I did get to visit the Jefferson monument, and the FDR memorial (which is probably my new favorite …. giant, tells the story well, and beautiful. I’d never been to it before – didn’t really know much about it.)

Best of the pictures to follow in a later post – but here’s a link to what was taken yesterday.

A ton of spam journals have added me recently… had to go through the console and ban_set them.

The Following are recent offenders that I’ve reported, and banned from posting in my journal (and removes them from my friend od list in my profile, so they don’t get any stray links from my site)

Those have all appeared in the last week, most of them within the same hour.

[sneakily added by bhk, all of it untrue!:
Also I want to publicly apologize to BHK for assuming that there was pumpkin ice cream in the fridge. There wasn’t! Also in a recent doodle I depicted her as a cover hog–she isn’t by any means!]
