At the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2007 with my favorite Georgetown boy, Alexander Marquardt.
Aside from being (cough cough) almost criminally good-looking, Alex is a talented on-air correspondent, and spent the presidential campaign on various candidates’ buses/planes traversing the country producing and reporting for CNN. The schedule would overwhelm just about anyone - I think he told me once that he spent like, four days in his actual apartment in DC the entire year - but he never seemed tired or frazzled.
In any case, he’s my date for the next two days - lucky me! (With the exception of the actual inauguration, to which I promised I’d take Dan as a reward for beating that damn cancer).
