Yesterday I had a Secret Service agent (or White House Guard, or something like that) stare at me for 2 hours! I went to the
Corcoran Gallery, which is directly across the street from the
Old Executive Office Building. 
It, of course, is next door to the
White House. Metro Access was to pick me up at 1:30 PM, so I was outside waiting at 1:30 PM. At 2PM I called the "Where Is My Ride?" line, and was told to wait... And again at 2:15... And again at 2:30... and so on until 4PM, when the bus finally came. Meanwhile, a stocky, serious looking man carrying some kind of ominous looking case came out and stood in the yard of the Old Executive Office Building and just and stared at me for 2 hours.
Which means, I guess, that I am a massive waste of taxpayer dollars!
I saw
Air Force One land on the White House lawn, and then I saw it depart again. At least I guess it was Air Force One - it landed right on the White House lawn. Do they let any other planes do that?
I imagined to myself that
President Obama was looking out the window at me, and saying, "Look at that lovely lady sitting patiently there in a wheelchair. Lets appoint her ambassador to somewhere.
Hillary, why don't you get right on that!"
But no one has called yet...
Maye I should write and give him my number?"
