My sister is leaving LA. She got a job with a private school just outside of DC. It seems like a great school - lots of diplomat's and politician's kids attend. They're actually expanding the school, which is a good sign that it's doing well. It seems a rare thing for a company these days to do anything other than downsize.
She doesn't know anyone in DC. It'll be tough for her to not have any family nearby. She's determined to make it work and even more thrilled to leave LA. I'm a big believer in a positive attitude, so hopefully that will carry her through.
It'll be fun to have a place to stay in DC. Some may not know, but I'm kinda a political junkie. At work I'm always flipping between MSNBC and CNN and the long hours of my commute are almost always spent listening to AM political talk radio. I often think that if I had a chance to do a totally different career it would have something to do with politics. Those living with me during Nov 2000 might remember that my TV never changed from MSNBC election coverage during the long, uncertain days while the presidency was being stolen. Sparky, remember the Lock Box?!
Now that I'm properly registered in the correct political party, maybe it's not too late...

OMG - of course I remember the Lock Box!! Do you still have the tape? Or did you totally wear it out?!
The election coverage just won't be the same now that Tim Russert is gone :(
