I just say "I run a small web design business," although it lacks the edge now that I'm employed as well :^)

I do think that it sounds a little off-base to call oneself an entrepeneur at least in the DC area...very self-important.

I used to live in DC. Entrepreneurs were few & far between; paper shufflers abound.
