Time: 7:30 p.m.
Location: Elephant & Castle, 1201 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC

I'm undecided yet about going. Since I have satellite service from Canada, I could watch the results roll in at home just as easily as in downtown DC, and I won't have to drive home depressed if the neo-puritans Conservatives win a majority.

Passport Photo

I finally found a place in the greater DC area which will do photos in a format suitable for Canadian passports. With nothing else planned for this morning, I dashed out to University Blvd & Colesville Rd (about three miles from home) to get the photos while Kent was still getting dressed.

( God-awful photo & rant here... )

Now I just have to find a window of opportunity to get downtown to have my would-be guarantor can sign & initial on the dotted lines so I can drop my renewal in the mail.
