Brad Pitt Has Your Secret Shit: Rolling DC

oh hey, btw my wife and I will be in town 27th - 1st

FAP!!

we are busy on the 27th and have several other ppl to visit but yeah, I was totally thinking FAP

awesome! the 29th and 30th will be tricky for me but otherwise i'm free

tricky but doable that is

Sweet; the 28th (Thursday) would be best for me.

Would love to finally meet some of you DC folks. I'll try to make it out, though Friday I'm busy.

I'll try to make it but might have a non-ILXor friend staying, so might fail.

Make your friend an ilxor! "one of us...one of us..."

You can vet her if you like, yes!

Better still, everyone, come to the Topaz Hotel's comedy night this Thursday 28th at 7.30pm, where she's doing the open mic night.

Fook, I am out o town this weekend (again), but if stars align I will move heaven and earth to see some Perrys!

Also, for those not yet familiar with the DC way of introducing internet friends when you don't want to say "internet friends," we are DIRTBIKE FRIENDS (RIP 69; miss you, boo!)

Will my friend believe I have anything to do with dirtbikes? She knows me too well...

Likely no FAP for me as I'm gonna be busy with relatives in town for a niece's Bat Mitzvah Thursday to Sunday. May try to go see George Clinton and Meshell Ndegecello for free tonight on the mall between 6 and 9 pm. But it will likely be mobbed.

Is this going to happen tomorrow? Should we maybe think about Big Hunt or somewhere nearby the Topaz? Dan, where are you guys staying?

I'm thinking Friday may be better just to give a little more time to ppl for planning etc. we are staying with my brother in SE.

Omg so glad I saw this! I want to meet the infamous dip!

Okay here's the deal:

- my brother is playing guitar at a show tonight and we are trying to go to it
- also trying to meet up with a singing friend from back in the day prob for dinner

I don't know the details for the show otherwise I'd give them, I just know its a rock band. If ppl want to come to it I can find more info, otherwise we might have to do tomorrow.

INFO:

8pm doors, Axum is a grungy ethiopian spot, 1934 9th St. NW Washington, District of Columbia 20009
$5 cover

i will try to make it! how long will you be there?

Probably for a while, I think my brother goes onstage at 9

I will be wearing a Donkey Kong t-shirt

WE ARE HERE, COME BY AND DRINK WITH US

sorry i couldn't make it :(

this weekend is full of visiting family but if there are any other goings on i will do my best to get there!

well that was a fun time. how are dcilxors faring with power, etc? ours came back last night but pepco tells my sister their estimate is 7 days.

Our power never goes out, but my in-laws who live a few blocks away usually don't get their power back for a few days after one of these things happens, so we always end up hosting the contents of their refrigerator.

I'm really thankful that we still have a/c. My baby came down with an ear infection/fever on Friday and keeping her cool is a priority.

No power; currently working on alternative living arrangements because it is Too Fucking Hot. Spent last night with friends in Calvert Co who have both power and a POOL. Still here, actually.

I lost power for a little while on Friday, and internet gone until late last night. Guess we got lucky in this part of Alexandria.

So lucky: no power loss. Very relieved as friend was staying from the UK and cousin is on his way.

Still no power at my ffx place

found effects?

bro had power, no cable

Had a flight out of DC about 20 minutes before the storm hit, got back this afternoon and my power never even went out. Yay for buried power lines.

My power was out for a bit but it came back. Sorry I missed DJP but was busy out in Maryland at Bat Mitzvah with relatives

Today was supposed to be my first day of work at a new job and I got sent home as soon as I got there. No power for the whole office.

Nice. Got to my job and was sent home too.

Finally got my power back last night. For all the talk of a "new" Washington, the place continues to exemplfy "Northern charm and Southern efficiency."

new Washington, same Pepco

i bitch about dominion sometimes but then i remember it could be worse and i could have pepco!

My parents' block in Arlington still has no power. It kinda blows since I am home this week.

Loving u friends on 16th who have power and are putting us up in their guest room <3 <3 <3

Kinda sucking for the cats, though. S suggested we shave them, as though that would not produce more problems than we already have. . .

apparently you ppl like to do vacays in Rehoboth--is anyone there btwn now and Thurs morn?

i am doing vacay in miami! starting: tomorrow :)

No Rehoboth till August for me.

A+ choice though.

Yay for buried power lines.

We all should have 'em but I guess power companies and local governments think that's too pricey to do

you know it is bad when you are considering abandoning DC for New Jersey until the power is back :(

*claws off face*

Aw actually I am now in New Brunswick (!) having a great time so yay to NJ! Also Stevie any interest in DC house sitting in Dec???

OMG!! Where in NB are you?! And also hells yes!!

I am staying at the hotel we call the Heimlich, though its actual name is something else, let me see. . . oh yeah Heldrich. I'm here for two more nights! Tell me fun stuff to do!

I'll txt you about the house sitting! That would be so awesome, kitties would be thrilled, as would all dcilxors.
