Desperate in DC is a web log devoted to the dark, seamy underbelly of life in Washington DC.

If you've ever felt the urge to laugh out loud at the idea of having to dress-up for car pool; if you've ever looked around at PTA meetings and wondered what you were doing in a roomful of middle-aged adults; and if you can't stop dressing like your pre-teen daughter, then this blog is for you.
C. is a liberal, thirty-something lawyer and married mother of four, whose tenth wedding anniversary in no way post-dates the birth of her oldest child.
P. is a conservative, thirty-something PR consultant and married mother of two, who would like to point out that she is NOT pregnant to everyone who asks. You try acquiring the washboard stomach of a twenty-year old after giving birth to a 9lb 15oz child.
