NASA Valentine

Me and my NASA swag

Mr. Logical pulled off the best Valentine's Day today.  We started the day by test driving a Mercedes.  Then we drove into DC to the NASA headquarters and attended a NASA Tweetup hosted by Astronaut Ron Garan.  It was so awesome, he answered lots of questions and we got to be on NASA TV.  @Astro_Ron (his Twitter handle) was such a wonderful speaker, and we learned so much about life on the International Space Station, as well as how important the space program is to our future both in space and here on Earth.  Mr. Logical and I also learned a lot about Tweetups, and how they work.  Next time we will be a little better prepared.  you can read all my tweets on my Twitter feed @LibraryGirl313.

We had dinner with our Hawai'i friends at their local hangout, Shelly's Backroom, which is our biannual Valentine's Day tradition.  Now we are watching Farscape with our house guest.  And Mr. Logical said I could register for Educator Space Camp in Alabama.  Don't know how Mr. Logical will top this Valentine's Day next year!

We have a house guest for the next few days, which is very fun.  Except our house has not fully recovered from me moving in.  So I had to do some last minute throwing stuff into the master bedroom this evening.  Totally worth it though, because our Hawai'i friends are some of the best people in the world.

And tomorrow I get to spend my biannual Valentine's Day dinner with the Freemasons, after my afternoon at NASA headquarters.  Two years ago, this involved trained killers singing show tunes on the Metro, this year promises to be just as entertaining.
