This is Frida, my precious little puggy baby. This is the face that makes me giggle. You want my dog, but you can't have her. That's all I have to say.

A couple days ago it reached 96 degrees F. This is only the end of April. I swear this will be the year I die from the horrible and extreme heat of the DC metropolitan area. What an unsavory swamp this is. If I could have a few words with our founding fathers, I'd ask them nicely, "why not place the nation's capitol in New England somwhere?"

Oh, and a few days before that, President Obama messed up my lunch drive. I got right behind his motorcade getting off the beltway on the NASA GSFC exit heading back to work. They looked at me funny after I passed him in the breakdown lane (really, does he need seven cars)?

This is some strange stuff. The other day while walking back to center from lunch, a co-worker and I found a crumpled pair of panties not far from the welcome display. This is odd for two reasons. One, this is the most visible place on campus next to the NASA GSFC visitor center (this is the employee main gate entrance). Two, employees of NASA are generally sexless nerds, so this is a scientific anomaly. I believe this to be either some sort of prank, or a sociological experiment. Either would be awesome.

Another oddity I saw yesterday... this car, with a big adverstisement on it. It is a cleaning company in Maryland working at my neighbor's house.The ad on the car is funny, because it shows to very white 30-40 year old women. There is no such thing here. If you are in the cleaning business, you are Mexican and old. Why would they do that? Just seemed odd.
