Oxon Hill, MD (USA)

[worked a normal day - got changed into more formal attire before leaving the office - took the Metro back to my car and then drove over to National Harbor, where the ATCA Convention was taking place at the Gaylord - met up with friends from work and then walked the Conference Floor - there were lots of little "happy hours" going on at the vendor booths - I saw lots of people I knew and had several great discussions with others that I didn't (until I ran out of business cards) - around 1900, I headed over to the JMA Solutions "Party with a Purpose" (fundraiser) event, where we enjoyed a night of fun while supporting the Wounded Warrior Project - afterwards (2200), I drove Stephanie to her apartment in Arlington before heading home (via Mount Vernon Avenue and Del Rey, due to another traffic jam on I-395) - bed late]
