The two best words in the English language: Free Theatre!!
This sounds like a really cool idea, I'm really hoping that I get out there. If you haven't already seen "An Enemy of the People" and are in the area I'd definitely recommend it. Not sure which one I'm going to try to see, maybe the one at Ford's. Hopefully I can get tickets on Monday...

Last night I went to see "An Enemy of the People" at the Shakespeare Theatre with a friend from work. It is an awesome play, and I would definitely say that anybody with an interest in theatre or politics should come out and see it. Ibsen was disillusioned with both sides of the political spectrum, and he used this play to bring both conservatives ( Read more... ) -

Looks like I've come down with a head cold. Yesterday I started having sneezing fits, and today I've had to stop every couple of minutes to blow my nose. I also woke up with a slight sore throat this morning, not enough to be painful but just enough to make me worry that this is going to turn into my regular chest cold (in other words, three days ( Read more... ) -

Last night I saw "The 70" with a couple of my co-workers. It was a good play, and having taken the 70 bus almost every day for the past three years I can tell you that some of the characters were spot-on to how people really act on that route. Before we went to the play we stopped at the Footnotes Cafe at Olsson's on 7th Street for some dinner and ( Read more... ) -

So much for staying in the air-conditioned office until 5. We had an incident at work that required those of us with breathing problems (like me with my asthma) to vacate, so I ended up going home around 2. Because I didn't want to sit in my sweltering apartment for those three extra hours, I went to the Barnes and Noble at Metro Center and bought ( Read more... ) -

Why does my ankle still hurt? It's been five days since I twisted it, and yet it's still swollen and still hurts like hell (although it doesn't really hurt when I touch it, just when I move it). I really hope that this pain goes away, it's making it difficult to function and I really don't need this to keep persisting. I really don't want to go to ( Read more... ) -

So apparently the Shakespeare Free-for-All this year is going to be a production of Pericles (which apparently is a play by Shakespeare...who knew?). I'm psyched to go, and this will be my second time going so I know what to expect. Anybody else out there planning to spend a relaxing evening in Rock Creek Park watching the work of one of the finest ( Read more... ) -

So it looks like we're going to be getting some snow over the weekend. It figures that we should get our significant (and probably only) snow of the season on a Saturday when it can't give me a three day weekend. People will probably be fun to watch, DC decends into chaos when there's so much as a flurry and I expect that when I get to the ( Read more... )
