restaurant week dc!!

not a huge fan of going out to eat, so i do it as less as possible...i make up for my lack of dining out a few times a year...mainly during restaurant week...i.e. NOOOOOW!

for lunch went to potenza w/ coworkers. calamari was mediocre, but shrimp & fennel was really good. sorbet WOULD have been good, but we had to rush out to make it to the office by 2pm (lunch time check in)...we actually rushed about 2 spoonfuls into our mouths (very good).


off to acadiana now...so acadiana was cool! went w/ smoe, friend from hs & her buds from state dept. had roasted sweet corn and blue crab soup for starters, then louisiana seafood gumbo. only had 1 spoonful then i was full (needless to say it'll be lunch). by the time my toasted almond creme brulee came around i was ready to go so ate a spoonful then gave it to smoe.

looking forward to our outings at the melting pot, which is the next stop on thursday!

NO PANTS SUNDAY!!

so finally went to a dc defenestrators event!! (part of the capitol improv group)

talked smoe into going (he thought we were gonna get arrested) and we were off...

good turn out at pre-meeting. talked to one of the organizers and he said over 2,000 rsvp'd

for some reason a guy was in a pedobear costume was there

next we split into birth months to form groups then we were off. december only had like 6 people so i thought i'd do them a favor & join smoe's bday month









me pretending to read smoe's book. to the r is the (december) guide





me super happy to be w/o pants in metro! quite a liberating experience







a nudist we met who was REALLY hype to see so many folks come out w/ no pants. he handed out flyers for his events & kinda kept following us






smoe & i came...we saw....we de-pants :) only awkward part was when a (probably drunk) father yelled at our group "have you no shame? there are kids around here!" then proceed to yell at smoe: "you're not smart, just bc you're reading a book. you're not wearing pants so you're ignorant!"

WATCH out

sooooo i've wanted an old school casio for a while. i came across 1 about 3 months ago at 1 of those we sell everything stores in a hispanic strip mall and haven't stopped thinking about it.

finally made the plunge and bought it today see...!! (side note: got the latest time in the mail so thought it would be an approp background)

cupid boy...

smoe thinks pedophiles are behind this brand...i don't necessarily agree but the packaging does make me a bit uncomfortable.

"I ROCK ONESIES"!!!

courtesy of smoe, found the next big song in 2010...

Teaberry Shuffle

kinda looks like a forefather of the scissor-leg, no?

happy new year!!
