One year ago today, I joined the blogosphere. I put myself out there for the entire world to read. I’ve detailed some of the conflicting ideas that swirl around in my head. I’ve let you in on a few adventures I’ve taken. I’ve made book recommendations. But mostly, I’ve kept myself accountable. The whole point of this blog was to keep me accountable. One of my biggest fears is coming home at night and watching TV. Instead of being lazier than I already am, I’ve made huge efforts to make the most of Washington DC.
Here is my check-up, my memories of what I’ve done in the past 6 months:
