Your state of residence for tax purposes is determined by state law; it isn't something that you can just pick and choose. Here are MD and DC's residency laws:
MD regards you as a resident if you were domiciled in MD on the last day of the tax year, or if you maintained a place of abode in MD for more than 6 months of the taxable year and were present in MD for 183 days or more during the taxable year.
DC regards you as a resident if you are domiciled in DC at any time during the taxable year, or if you maintain a place of abode within DC for 183 days or more during the taxable year, regardless of where you are domiciled.
So we need more details about your living situation in order to help you with your questions.
