snowmania!

I hear my little island of Britain has come to stand still due to intense weather conditions. The schools were cancelled along with suspended public transport and closed shopping centres! All in the name of health and safety. (I personally think any excuse to have a few off days will do for them lol). It hasn't been this cold for the past 18 years. Mind you it was just as bad here over the inauguration period. I felt like my bones were ready to pack up and give up on me.

I have recently grown fond of the NY Times' online version thanks to a recommendation made by a close friend of mine. They have section called the most searched packed with all sorts of newsy and entertaining items that I have particularly taken a liking to. One of the articles I read left my head pondering on 1 question; how would you explain the difference between 'we're seeing each other', 'we're hooking up' and 'we're going out'? Or better yet under what circumstances would you use each phrase? hmm..

I'm planning to google and put together a list of some of the museums, historical libraries and attraction places here in DC I can visit. I figured I'm a bit more settled now so I can stop pretending to be lost and slowly wiggle my way into becoming a permanent Washingtonian (sniff sniff at the Londoner tag).
