I was out in the world and kept seeing the staff at this one place I go to wearing these D.C. flag T-shirts. After the second time I was like, "Must...have...one!" and asked about it.
You can find them at Kathleen's website (and some really cool photos and a hilarious blog too!)
Now you all know from my profile photo that I'm rocking a "I heart D.C." T-shirt (because I do! Don't even get me started on the whole "taxation without representation" thing. ) I'm a 3rd generation D.C. native. It's such a transient town due to the gov't and its related entities that people are surprised when I say that. It's just that I know that D.C.'s so much more than politics, museums, monuments and FBI/CIA thriller/conspiracy movies, you know? It's Ben's Chili Bowl & U St., Anacostia and the "Big Chair", Fletcher's Boathouse & the C&O Canal, East of the River and the Palisades. It's Wings 'n' Things' mumbo sauce and fresh crabs from the Wharf. D.C. is so much more...
Call me biased, but I live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I love D.C.
