The To Do List

February 2nd, 2012 · No Comments · Capitol Hill

So here we are: the first weekend of February in the good ol’ U S of A. What is there to do? For starters, there is apparently some fab game going on– they throw this funny-shaped ball back and forth and the players wear tight spandex. I hear it’s pretty good. If you want to [...]

January 19th, 2012 · 7 Comments · Capitol Hill

Hey there! Because I care for you and want you to be entertained, I have rounded up some of the funnier bits from that one great internet meme, Sh!t (insert group) say. As in, Sh!t Girls Say, etc. True, this particular meme may have jumped the shark, but you can decide which one is the [...]

Crunk on in the New Year

December 30th, 2011 · No Comments · Capitol Hill, DC, H Street

Faith and Raychel — that’s the Crunkcakes girls to you — are first and foremost, a riot to hang out with. I tagged along with them during the November H Street Bakes at H Street Country Club and it was fun just to watch them talk, joke, and bicker like a twentysomething pair of BFFs. [...]

December 29th, 2011 · No Comments · Barracks Row, Eastern Market, H Street

Newsflash! New Year’s Eve is this weekend. That, coupled with what is arguably one of the slowest weeks in Washington (second only to the August mass exodus, perhaps?) makes this week’s To Do list all about the last night of the year. So, do you love it? Hate it? Is it just another (Saturday) night? [...]

Hi folks! Yes, another belated Humpday fun post… what can I say? I am finally getting into the holiday spirit, however! After being a bit of a Grinch last week, I thought I would share a really fun video from the incredibly talented musicians of the US Navy Band. Ready? PS: I am kind of [...]

December 7th, 2011 · No Comments · DC

You know you’re sitting at your desk wondering whether you should take to the streets, even though you’re pretty sure there’s wintry mix falling out there ALREADY –although it’s only 55 degrees, so maybe it’s just your imagination, or maybe the sky is finally #Occupying the streets. And then everyone is going to go crazy [...]

Fun For Your Humpday: Glaucoma and Munchies Edition

November 16th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Capitol Hill

Hey there, local interwebbers! It’s no secret that we’re all more than a little enamored by the idea –if not the actual act– of getting high as a kite. No, not the actual act, I know: we know you have to pee into cups for clearance. We know DC has a much higher tolerance for [...]

Fun For Your Humpday: A Little Elvis, Anyone?

October 19th, 2011 · No Comments · Capitol Hill

Yes, it’s Wednesday.  But you know what’s giving me much mirth to blow over the mid-week blahs? An old Elvis movie on Turner Movie Classics — who knew?  And because this is a DC blog, I cannot just tell you that you should tune in to TCM and watch yourself one, too, without somehow making [...]
