Rant: For the first time ever, heard someone in a bar order Disaronno on the rocks, just like on the dumb commercials

Rave: Inexplicably pleased when bartender told customer they don’t serve Disaronno; customer ended up with a Corona instead

@anonymous – hilarious!

Rave: Just a generally happy mood today… Totally busy at work so it should go fast…
Rave: Get to show someone from Missouri around town tonight (the my mom knows his mom sort of thing)
Rave: Boyfriend’s brother’s wedding is this weekend, then to the beach next weekend!

It’s a good good day

Rave: Thx for using my pic

Rant: Was it me or was it super humid this morning?

rave: I sat next to Owen Wilson in Dean and Deluca for over an hour on Saturday.

Rant – Young Thugs smoking weed in basement stairwell of foreclosed house next door

Rave – The satisfaction of standing up for my hood and running said Thugs off, telling we don’t want that crap in our neighborhood. Priceless.

Rant: Blew my knee out in my soccer game on Saturday!

Rave: Already had an appointment with an Orthopedic Surgeon for this PM. How lucky is that?!

Rant #2: Had to miss Pride Parade due to knee.

Rave #2: Did get out to Pride Festival, if only for an hour, so didn’t miss entire Pride weekend!

Rant: People who think it’s cool to have crappy bars that don’t have essential cordials on hand

Rave: Headed to NYC to hang with folks who have better things to worry about than what I order

Rave: Went on the St. Elizabeths tour this weekend after being on the wait list for a couple of months. Thanks for the tip, POP!!! Friends and I had a great time.

Rant: Too bad the GSA folks were helping give the tour and spent more time talking about the permits and GSA building process, than talking about the history of St. E’s. Oh-and a hitchhiking tick from the Civil War Cemetary came home with me.

Rave: It’s a beautiful sunny day
Rant: The beautiful sunny day starts up my allergies

Rant: A woman “intentionally placed herself on the tracks” and was killed at the Bethesda metro yesterday, and there was NO coverage on it…only “station closed due to police investigation.” I happened to be there just after it happened–police tape everywhere, a couple sitting inside the police tape that had probably witnessed the event…sad.

Rant2: I work for a small non-profit, and while a volunteer group was inside the building someone broke into their van and stole the GPS and two bags. They’re a youth group from Michigan that came to DC specifically to SERVE…and look what happens. There were people sitting outside who had probably witnessed the whole thing, but when the cops came around the disappeared. Such is life, I guess.

Rave: Because I work in a male-dominated environment, it has been decided that we need a “women’s retreat”. The women get to spend two days at a house in Lake Anna, VA…then get Friday off so as not to ruin the relaxation from the retreat.

rant: if you get to the point where you feel so alone and sad that the best way for you to get attention seems to be laying yourself across metro tracks, DONT! call a hotline, visit a friendly neighbor, or throw yourself into the potomac. dc metro transit is already screwed up enough as it is…

rave: beach in 3 days!!

Rave: I too went on the St. Elizabeth’s (sorry, I just can’t do it without the apostrophe – I’m an editor) walking tour on Saturday. I thought it was really interesting and I appreciated hearing about both the history and the future plans. I think it made complete sense for them to talk about the future plans for the site because if they didn’t, the entire tour would be dominated by people asking those very questions. They’re just trying to address people’s concerns.

Rave: raymond khoury’s newest book
Rant: accidentally seeing the first two minutes of “the last templar” the mini series smh

Rave: ate at domku restaurant on sunday. wow! real food, real drinks.

Rave: they’re finishing the condo/whatever complex on georgia & quincy. trees! flowers! grass!
