Timezones suck. I got 2 hours of sleep last year.
I saw two assholey-acting, diplomatic-plated cars today. Maybe it really is as common as the mass media would have me believe. Also, people actually honk at traffic here. I still don't understand that.
The FBI building is one the ugliest buildings I've ever seen.
Apparently I look safe-yet-competent even in a strange city. While I was walking up Virginia avenue someone pulled over to ask for directions -- and I knew the answer.
The exhibit hall of the National Archives is closed for remodeling. I am deeply disappointed. The Constitution and The Bill of Rights are some of the few things that make me feel patriotic.
The temperature was fine, but it was really, really wet. I could either wear my coat and be at a comfortable temperature, yet sweaty, or I could take it off and not sweat, but be cold. I don't know where DC gets off being so humid. It isn't like it's next to a real ocean or anything.
The World Bank has a gift shop.

Drivers there in general are utterly insane. (Possibly less so than in New York, but no one has yet been able to prove this.) If you take a good look at the street layout, you will understand what leads to this insanity.
