Bethesda, MD (USA)

[went into work earlier than normal (Metro) - around 0830 (after a few hours of work), I got back on the Metro (Red Line) and headed over to a doctors appointment at Bethesda - got great news (17 years in the making - lots of second opinions - bottom line: I don't have a nasty condition I thought I did!) - overall, the doctor experience was very good - I then headed back to work - later in the day, I rode (Metro again) to Pentagon City - Stephanie and Dave texted that I should join them at Redrocks (in Arlington) for pizza and beer - caught a cab outside the station and got there in a flash - had a great time chatting and relaxing after a busy week - Dave drove me back to Metro - when I arrived home, I found out it was actually game night with Bob and friends - I learned how to play "Settlers of Cataan" and enjoyed all of the comraderie and shared interest in strategy games - bed late]
