Yeah, we're on. 7 pm. Will make reservations tomorrow - so if you can, lemme know before early afternoon if you can come by so I can get a big enough table and all that. I cut a christmas tree today. It was really fucking cold.

Quincie, did Mr. Q's boss grant blue-jeans privileges for today?

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Friday, 25 November 2005 21:42 (eighteen years ago) link

We should still be able to make it, I have the car reserved until midnight.

No worky for me today, kind of a holy shit moment!

― TOMBOT, Friday, 25 November 2005 21:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Hi all! No worky for either me or Mr. Q yesterday, and the clothing of choice was pajamas until well into the afternoon. We'll be headed back to town later this afternoon and I plan to see ya'll in beautiful downtown Silver Spring this evening.

― quincie, Saturday, 26 November 2005 15:05 (eighteen years ago) link

Arg I don't think I can make it after all. I wasted all of yesterday being depressed and advising strangers how to get into college, now I have to do this project that is due Monday that I just started. Have fun, though!

I am still back in my hometown. The local mall has a new booth near center court with "Redneck Outfitters" and other various and sundry redneck t-shirts for sale. I was tempted to buy one but unfortunately the confederate flag is rather prominently featured in each and every design, and I have to draw the line somewhere.

― dar1a g (daria g), Saturday, 26 November 2005 20:27 (eighteen years ago) link

Urgh. It is almost four and we haven't left the sticks yet, so I may not be back in time for chow. Someone please eat some horse gram powder and describe it in intimate detail for me!

― quincie, Saturday, 26 November 2005 20:38 (eighteen years ago) link

See you all at Mandalay at 7pm.!

dudes they were ahead when I left my home town late in the 3rd quarter.. and then.. three and a half hours later (WHY YOU ALL DRIVE SO SLOW ON I-70) I walk in the door & the first thing my housemate says is awww, sorry about the Redskins!

― dar1a g (daria g), Monday, 28 November 2005 21:40 (eighteen years ago) link

But how was Mandalay?

― Curmudgeon Steve (Steve K), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 02:40 (eighteen years ago) link

I think restaurant critic Todd Kliman has started at the Washingtonian. I will have to check out the November and later issues at a newstand, or at my folks (it's not worth buying, but he is worth reading)...

― Curmudgeon (Steve K), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 02:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Mandalay was a good time. I don't know about the rest of you, but I was feeling a little woozy from chronic holiday overindulgence, so I think I was more of a space cadet than usual. But yeah, it was fun. I believe horse gram powder was indeed consumed.

We'll have to schedule something again, maybe when Nick's down.

― ZR (teenagequiet), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 14:37 (eighteen years ago) link

dear tofu salad and bitter melon pork,
i love you.

zack: at least you didn't break any glasses.

― carly (carly), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 17:24 (eighteen years ago) link

only hearts

So is no one else going to hit up ANNIE's appearance at the Black Cat tonight? It's sponsored by the Royal Norwegian Embassy!

― adam (adam), Friday, 2 December 2005 12:34 (eighteen years ago) link

God DAMMIT adam. don't you know that what I don't know can't hurt me?

We have to finish packing. Three Guys and A Truck coming tomorrow morning. Also, I have to work from 1030-1030.

― TOMBOT, Friday, 2 December 2005 13:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll be DJ'ing a couple of sets at BLISS/Annie tonight.

― Brian Miller (Brian Miller), Friday, 2 December 2005 14:12 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll be there.

― dar1a g (daria g), Friday, 2 December 2005 14:53 (eighteen years ago) link

The gf and I may be there as well.

― ZR (teenagequiet), Friday, 2 December 2005 15:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Tom you can feel free to go, I mean I'm already handling the move and the unpacking by myself so packing should be no problem.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The main building of the Library of Congress was evacuated for several hours on Wednesday because of a "suspicious odor," but the building reopened early in the afternoon, a library spokeswoman said.

STEPHEN YOU OK?

― quincie, Friday, 2 December 2005 16:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Woohoo, I won tickets to Annie. Extra $$$ for beer is always good. Look for the tall guy in a black hoodie wearing either a High On Fire or Eyehategod t-shirt, because I like to dress the part when I go to indiepop nights.

― adam (adam), Friday, 2 December 2005 17:09 (eighteen years ago) link

SAYONARA ARLINGTON, I HARDLY KNEW THEE.

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Saturday, 3 December 2005 04:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Boo, VA defectors. How was Annie?

So, if I wanted to go to a Depeche Mode after-party next Fri. night, should I choose Black Cat or DC9? Black Cat seems a bit more in keeping with my taste. Right Round v Liberation; thoughts?

Anyone going to the Patiot Center?

― Mary (Mary), Saturday, 3 December 2005 18:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Underwhelmed by Annie. Overwhelmed by poorly-dressed, poorly-dancing DC types and really expensive drinks. What the hell is going on with a $3.50 PBR?

― adam (adam), Saturday, 3 December 2005 19:02 (eighteen years ago) link

poorly-dressed, poorly-dancing DC types

Are there any other kind? Ha, I will be one next Friday.

― Mary (Mary), Saturday, 3 December 2005 19:07 (eighteen years ago) link

haha adam welcome to the big city.
I'm glad you were underwhelmed because that makes me feel better about not being able to go. And having to work today.

Guess what everybody? T-Mobile cell coverage doesn't reach our new apartment. Catherine Zeta FUCKING SHIT.

Anybody down with Vonage?

― TOMBOT, Saturday, 3 December 2005 19:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Where do you city-types live now?

― Mary (Mary), Saturday, 3 December 2005 19:22 (eighteen years ago) link

haha adam welcome to the big city.

No kidding. DC is not how I left it at all.

― adam (adam), Saturday, 3 December 2005 21:15 (eighteen years ago) link

They were trying to dance? That's an improvement over the usual arms-crossed scowl.

I've used Verizon for the past few months--as promised, full coverage throughout the Metro system. Except for, you know, on the actual trains.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:26 (eighteen years ago) link

being drunk is awesome, guys

― ZR (teenagequiet), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Gotta try that again.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Sunday, 4 December 2005 06:27 (eighteen years ago) link

go skins. and alcohol. boo KFC and the stupidity that caused me to eat it.

― JD from CDepot, Monday, 5 December 2005 01:49 (eighteen years ago) link

They *were* trying to dance, it's true. Were you near the front? It was too crowded to dance up there.. I was dressed very well, I think!

And I forgot about Depeche Mode. damn. I suppose there are only really bad seats left..?

― dar1a g (daria g), Monday, 5 December 2005 04:49 (eighteen years ago) link

TOMBOT, email me. I needs you.

― Spink, Monday, 5 December 2005 13:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Were you near the front?

I was for the first half of the set. Then I said fuck it and sat at the bar and drank steadily until my friends got done with their dancing.

― adam (adam), Monday, 5 December 2005 13:38 (eighteen years ago) link

e-mail you? yayer@yayo.cocaine doesn't seem like it will get me very far.

― TOMBOT, Monday, 5 December 2005 14:09 (eighteen years ago) link

You had my address before. I just cant check old mail at work through the web based shiot because Tbird at home pulls them off when I check.

― Spink, Monday, 5 December 2005 14:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Annie got a mediocre review in the W. Post today.

― curmudgeon, Monday, 5 December 2005 15:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Quincie, it wasn't me! None of my odors are at all suspicious, unfortunately.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Monday, 5 December 2005 15:17 (eighteen years ago) link

I got your address before by using the web based shiot here on ILX.
All I have for you in my gmail book is the old m-train thing that doesn't work.

― TOMBOT, Monday, 5 December 2005 15:45 (eighteen years ago) link

You and I are definitely in the right career field.

― TOMBOT, Monday, 5 December 2005 15:45 (eighteen years ago) link

There.

― Spink, Monday, 5 December 2005 15:46 (eighteen years ago) link

Where's my goddamn snowstorm?

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Monday, 5 December 2005 17:38 (eighteen years ago) link

HERE IT IS (it's 2:18 p.m. Rockville time).

― quincie, Monday, 5 December 2005 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

We're getting it here, too. Please close the city now.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Monday, 5 December 2005 19:39 (eighteen years ago) link
