Best Weekend Bets

Best Weekend Bets

May 7, 2009 by Svetlana

There is so much stuff going on this weekend my head IS EXPLOOOOOODING! before I even can function.
Now, if you were smart, you would have gone to Prague or something, just to not have to deal with making choices. Because choice making is hard.

So, we’re gonna dedicate today to THE CRAFT, the second best teen witch movie ever (the first one being “Teen Witch”, duh) because if you were a witch you could teleport and be at all sorts of places at the same time and most importantly you could change your hair color JUST BY TOUCHING IT, which, lets face it does wonders when preventing follicle damage.

OK, so magic wand and Fairuza Balk (remember just HOW SCARY that girl was?) and Neve Campbell and Robin Tunney by your side, here is WHAT IS UP:

THURSDAY
13 events on the calendar.
for reals?
yes.

If you’re into movies with both Buffalo 66 and North by northwest (which is also free) you’re in luck.

If you’re not into movies (or at least not tonight) then….

Start with visiting the Mini Gallery Opening first and/or check out some John Lennon artwork and then either get on board with the GW Comedy fest or GO SEE THE DEARS. BECAUSE THEY ARE AMAZING.

OR GO SEE BIG BUSINESS. Because they are amazing too. A completely different kind of amazing but still amazing.

Peanut Butter Wolf and Stone’s throw are at 930 club too (you could allow more multitasking if you attend the in store @ Stussy beforehand)

Go home, pass out, cry a little, practice elevating people.
Make Skeet Urlich cry at some point

FRIDAY
Writing about Thursday was hella tiring.
I mean, who does really go out on Fridays anymore?
Having said that there is an Embassy of Finland art party, a Civilian Art Projects dance jam, a total local band fiesta @ RNR hotel AND Sharon Jones is in town, so maybe you DO go out on Friday?

+ you know, Cale’s birthday.
Celebrate by being ambiguously gay but really not gay at all, and by spending more time on your hair than on anything else that day. Also celebrate by hugging him an awkwardly long amount of time when you see him. It will be oddly appreciated.

Oh and-Bewitch someone.

SATURDAY
DC RECORD FAIR IS AT WAREHOUSE THEATRE TODAY.
it will be awesome
also:
Art parties a go go. (so much so that I WILL do an Art Itinerary tomorrow, I promise) + A revolutionary gala to get fully behind.

Then- help support Ft. Reno and then have yourself some BIGGER SEX.
That should be enough.

Chris: Why didn’t you answer the phone?
Sarah: It’s three in the morning Chris.
Chris: Oh. Yeah, I guess that’s a good reason… hey, you know, I was thinking we should move in together.
Sarah: I don’t think I’m ready for that level of commitment.
Chris: Oh. Sarah, I can’t stop thinking about you. I can’t eat, I can’t sleep. I think I love you. I’ve never loved anyone before… well, except for my mom and this little puppy I had when I was little…

SUNDAY
Rest, relax and spend some time making masks made out of NOTHING BUT GOOGLY EYES so you’re good and ready for our Masquerade @ The House Of Sweden next week.
Cool?Cool.

suggestions that I did not suggest go into comments.
NOW.

and of course you can’t plan anything but BIGGER SEX on Saturday – shits gonna be poppin all night long

on Sunday spend some time apologizing to your mother for embarrassing her at brunch – let her know you didn’t plan on having circles under your eyes and a big hickie on your neck.

@chad

Wherever my girl takes me, apparently she has plans in store… I’m maybe a little scared… will have to make sure the hair looks good…
