Ok, so maybe I’m not, but I did make the news.

I went to visit my sister this past weekend in DC. It’s her last weekend as a DC metro area resident, and I went down to join her on her farewell tour of the city. On Friday night, we went to the Liberation Dance Party at DC9, one of my DC traditions that I remember fondly. We had fun, but Dylan - if you are out there reading this, it was not the same without you. They projected the tv show “Dinosaurs” on the wall, which was a little creepy, yet funny.

On Saturday, we went to the Legwarmers concert. The Legwarmers are an 80s cover band that plays shows once or twice a month at the State Theatre in Falls Church. It’s a bit of a trek to get out there because it’s not on the metro route, but the place was packed with people in 80s gear. All was going fairly well until some drunk girl punched one of the girls who had come with us because she was “in her space.” I would like to formally suggest that if you don’t like having people in your space, you should not go to concerts. Save the punches for when douchebag boys decide that it’s ok to cop a feel just because you’re standing near them.

All and all, the evening turned out pretty well. For me, anyway, seeing as nobody punched me and I got to sing along to “Don’t Stop Believing.”

And here I am, back in New York, where Lara will be joining me shortly as a brand new New York resident! I’ll post more pictures from this weekend later, when I have access to my camera.
