texchan | My Life of Glamor ... and Photos!

Friday is the day I clean HPH's cage. So, I get his little carrier ready with fluffy bedding and some snackies. I (with kiddo's help) coax him out of his little burrow/hut so that he can crawl into my hand for the ride to his carrier. (I swear, it's so freaking cute how he does that.) And then, the fun begins. Cage and I head down to the first-floor bathroom, where I empty out bedding ... toss old food ... empty the water bottle ... and take all the toobs apart. Of course, I always manage to make a HUGE mess on the floor, in the process. After I've washed everything and am cleaning up the hamster "prezzies" off the bathroom floor (soon to be followed by scrubbing said bathroom, once the cage is back together), it occurs to me:

Wow. My life is so freaking glamorous. *snort* >.O

Aaaand ... I shall further alienate and annoy folks with additional pictures. Go me! =D

I decided to be somewhat "timely" and share a few Christmas Eve and snow pics. (Behind the cut, of course.)

Christmas Eve

For Christmas Eve, we headed into The District for a special dinner at a favorite restaurant. Kind of on a lark, I decided to take my camera, and I'm glad I did. I'm not the best at shooting night scenes, but I ended up with a few shots I liked.

Capitol and Christmas Tree:

Outside the National Arboretum:

Capitol from a distance:

China Town:

Random Street Scene (I don't remember where this was >.O):

Another one where the location escapes me:

And Snow!!

These are from the recent snow we had a couple of days ago. See how timely I can be? *nervous laugh* These are all from my neighborhood and/or in front of my house.
