Washington, DC: Day 2

I miss Aaron. He's at home, sick. I hate being so far away when he isn't feeling well.

So, just an update on my trip; today was pretty uneventful. I went to 9.5 hours of conferences, but still got the opportunity to go shopping, walk around D.C., and go to two of my favorite stores: H&M and Urban Outfitters. I went crazy while shopping and I should have left my cash at the hotel.

There was one conference I went to (there are several sessions that go on simultaneously and you can choose where you want to go) that I found to be interesting. It was entitled "Breaking the Silence" and discussed treatment interventions that are sensitive to the LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, Transgender, Questioning) population. It was an awesome, pertinent, and profound conference.

Here are some pics from today. Tomorrow we are skipping part of the seminar to go to the zoo.

I had to take a picture of this, one of Aaron's sponsors.

There is this strange walkway outside our hotel. It is beautiful- but there is no explanation for the purpose of it. Isn't it strange that I want some sort of explanation for beauty?
