Back from DC. Had a very nice way wining and dining through the city. It seems ironic that although Katsucon was being held close enough to DC that I saw a Sango on the Metro, I wasn't there for the con.

What rocked: Freer Gallery of Art with its collection of Far Asian art. Finally seeing the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution up close and personal.

What didn't: The Smithsonian Museum of the American Indian. I was hoping for an interesting collection of artifacts and perhaps some discussion of the culture that made them. Instead it's the Cherokee Hair Tampon South Park ep all over again. Inasmuch as part of Native American culture extends to selling gullible white people silver trinkets, I guess it's a success.

Samurai Champloo 22 dl'ed. Too tired to watch tonight.

Time for another bath. I'm gimping around the apartment like an eighty-year-old with terminal arthritis.

Perhaps you were on the wrong line? I can't remember what line we were on, unfortunately. It was later in the morning on Saturday (maybe about 9:30 or so) and most otaku attending cons don't roll out of bed until noon.

Eh... draw your own conclusions about the NMAI before you take my word. If you work in the city, it shouldn't be much trouble to hop over there on the Metro; the L'Enfant Plaza stop is right behind the museum, I think.
