Enjolras isn't a statue, really ([info]solo_patria) wrote in [info]valarnet,

You know how TV always emphasizes the jetlag thing when you're changing coasts on a trip? I think it's safe to say that yeah, that's pretty much an Enjolras thing now. I got into DC yesterday, checked out a couple of things before I went to check in and then ran out again because it's not like I was gonna be getting much sleep.

Given how much I sleep anyway, it's not like that's a major shock here, but it's still weird. I keep feeling like it's so much earlier than it actually is, and the whole nerves before the interview thing weren't helping. That said, now that it's over, it actually went...pretty well I think. I'm not sure if they're going to want someone more local for this thing since it requires a couple office days a week and all and they might want someone who doesn't have to deal with relocating for the short term, but...Reporters Without Borders is amazing and they do great work and I'd be willing to do it, and thrilled if they pick me for this internship.

I mean, it's all pretty up in the air as far as this stuff goes, but I'm kinda excited anyway. I get that it's probably NOT going to happen because there are huge, huge numbers of people trying to get in, not just journalists, and it's a chance to do amazing work and help a lot of people in the process but they did seem to like me, which has to give me some points, and there's that slim little chance that I'm hoping works out.


With that all said and done, while I'm here, does anybody want anything before I head home tomorrow night? I'm hitting a couple of the museums later today and did the Mall yesterday, and had an amazing vendor sausage, which, by the way, Joly, still alive, but yeah if anyone actually would like, I don't know, tshirts or mugs or some crap, let me know while I'm still around, will you?

Okay, off to keep on playing tourist. And find lunch. From a cart. Because I can.

For now. If you come home with trichinosis, don't blame me.

I...shouldn't have wiki'd that, I really shouldn't have.

...You're such a good friend, Joly. But I'm pretty sure they're regulated.

You should know better by now.

They're food carts. On the street. Who regulates those?

I really, really should have. I'm some kind of subconscious masochist, clearly. That should probably disturb me.

...Agencies. Probably...

...I'm just gonna see if there's a panda express around instead.

I hope you're enjoying yourself, trichinosis be damned. Spend a minute or two at the Lincoln Memorial for me, would you?

I'm getting quite a bit of the potential relocation list taken care of, so it's been a very enjoyable trip, yes. And I just saw Oscar the Grouch. I've always liked Oscar, so that was kind of awesome. And of course I will.
