I knew I was a city person.

I just need to move a little bit further in... all the way to the Hill.

The neighbor committee-people of Capitol Hill have these annual (presumably) dinner parties where a book is the centerpiece for the menu and atmosphere. This is a party-theme after my own heart.

A Literary Feast, it's called.

fahrenheit and celsius, for my own reference

Quick reference for myself, when I'm talking to British people

3 degrees Celsius, 37 degrees Fahrenheit

5 degrees Celsius, 41 degrees Fahrenheit

10 degrees Celsius, 50 degrees Fahrenheit

16 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit

20 degrees Celsius, 68 degrees Fahrenheit

25 degrees Celsius, 77 degrees Fahrenheit

32 degrees Celsius, 90 degrees Fahrenheit

35 degrees Celsius, 95 degrees Fahrenheit

38 degrees Celsius, 100 degrees Fahrenheit



So I guess double and then add 30 roughly works?

it's worth mentioning

August 2, 2011

One year exactly since I left London.

It was quite a year, and it's been quite a year.
