gobble.gobble.
another successful thanksgiving! traveled to DC to visit the folks. and no i was not felt up by any tsa agents, and had i been i would have expected – at the very least – to have been treated to a soda. we had our usual thanksgiving day DC traditional turkey meal at a beautiful restaurant – my mom has refused to cook since moving to DC. my meal was a beautiful steak – no turkey or stuffing for me. the rest of the weekend was filled with the spy museum and other touristy things.
but amongst these travels to and from DC one thing has always been a constant, COUPLES EVERYWHERE! I dont know why i’m surprised by this since VA’s slogan is “Virginia is for lovers” – i’ll go ahead and assume DC is included in this. all ages are coupled off, from young co-eds to cute grandparents.
this constant is one of the many reasons I would love to return to live in DC. I love the fact that the city is in love! boston no so much. well at least not till you’re into your 30s do people seem to fall in love here. boston falls in love with careers first then a few years later than the south we fall in love. with only a few years left in my twenties i feel VA/DC has a better target love market. I mean while out this weekend guys bought us drinks and were like pouncing on us because we had no rings on our fingers… the odds were in our favor!
i think all this cold weather freezes us up and it isnt till out 30′s that we thaw out to the thought of love. the farther south you go the warmer it is and the quicker they get married. I find VA/DC to be the prefect temperature and love age range. If i were to go to far south at my age now it would be slim pickings as all those deep southerners tend to marry much younger and to their high school sweet hearts.
so i guess all i can do while located in boston is to wait for winter to pass and for all the men to thaw out.
Note to Self: Heres to an early spring!!!!!!
