Today we were on our way to our favorite (24 hour!) Korean BBQ restaurant, Yechon. We had almost arrived when we were stopped by a police baracade. We pulled up to the Fairfax County police officer and the following conversation ensued:
Me: Do you know if the restaurant is still open?
Policeman: Yes, I believe so–you just have to go around the block.
Me: What happened here? Is there a power line down?
Policeman: No. Someone got whacked.
Me: Oh…..
Me: Isn’t Graceland in Nashville?
Coworker: No, Graceland is in Memphis.
Me: Oh. So where is Never Neverland?
Coworker: You’re thinking of Neverland. Never Neverland is the second star on the right and straight on ’til morning.
I took this picture of Stella last weekend at my cousin’s bridal shower:

Isn’t she growing up quickly?
This is the start of a new chapter in my life:

I have a new Mac and a new desk (from Walmart–I’m Klassy with a Kapital K). I don’t yet have a room of my own, but I’ve got my own corner.
I won’t say much right now, but I CAN say that it is very exciting. More details to come later.
