Every blog and her mother does a round up of what’s worth checking out over the weekend. Here’s a quick list of the best of it from where I’m sitting: Brightest Young Things DC: We’re talking art, movies, Smithsonian Folklife Festival, rooftop parties and more. Going Out Gurus: The Washington Post’s nexus for local and [...]
I’m counting down the days until my one and only week-long vacation for the year. Every day of which I expect to be on a beach and in a swimsuit. If I never put on pants once the whole week, I will be thrilled. Sorry, don’t be jealous. I know, it’s kind of obnoxious to [...]
Ann Curry, I’m going to miss you on the Today show. I don’t think it’s fair that you’re leaving so soon after taking the co-anchor position. It’s only been a year, after all.

Now, this should be obvious, but for any of you out there who haven’t realized it yet- hot yoga on hot days are not what’s up. It’s a terrible idea. It only took me about 5 minutes in that 100+ degree room to regret my decision. I write this post for you now with the [...]
Raise your hand if you think it is awesome that it’s June in DC and you are currently wearing a sweater? Barring the occasional rain storm, summer weather so far has been mild as a mouse.
