I have not had one of those "you guys, I am so tired, you have no idea" Best weekend Bets posts in a while.
Well, here is one.
I AM SO TIRED, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
If you woke up and went to work in the pitch black dark for days, stayed there forever and then had meetings for your other job every single day of the week, meetings that require alertness and more, and then went home to write BYT posts for the next day till it is no longer today, you can vaguely start imagining how I feel right now.
I don't feel like Step Up 2 The STREETS.
I don't feel like Can't hardly wait.
I feel like FIGHT CLUB (AT BEST).
But the weekend is here so everything is going to be better, right?
Right.
Here's where to focus your hopes on:
THURSDAY
FRONT ROW kicks off
+
today brings us SHORTS, which is free and has no cause but for you to wear shorts.
and the ZOOfari, which is expensive but for a good cause.
+
Horse Feathers have finally made their way to DC, so get your KRS idol worship on
or
enjoy some miming.
For those out to rage the Electric cabaret this week looks good/great.
Also-the non-project runway show on Bravo is on tonight but I don't think anyone will be watching that.
FRIDAY
Velodrome or Party house.
OR BOTH?
SATURDAY
We are having a masked ball @ The House of Sweden.
should be sweet.
contortionists HAVE been hired.
And that's just the beginning of it.
tickets are available only in advance so get them in advance.
Also-tonight is Fatback which is where we're all going while still masked.
+ Mixtape if you're gay and have good taste and Fez party if you're into well, fezes.
SUNDAY
Dan Deacon is in town.
Which should be fun.
If you're still alive.
Otherwise-lick wounds, buy yourself flowers, eat some gelato, and use all horizontal surfaces in your house as a free-for-all napping territory.
That's all I've got energy for right now.
your turn
God loves a cheerful giver.
Lily will be swing dancing somewhere, or have front row tickets to some concert.
i am also tired. very very tired.

@denman,
No Fun Fest, huh? sounds like a good time.
To be fair, the Fez party at DC9 this Saturday night is also for people that are into novelty moustaches, off-beat music, off-beat movies, and off-beat dancing.
Basically, it's for people that are a bit off.
dear michael. i love you.
i want a mango gelati from rita's. i'll be in town this weekend. it will happen. it HAS to happen.
YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TONIGHT!!!!!!! Tax Lo with Black Strobe, Rebotini (live) and Triobelisk at Metro Gallery in Bmore next to Club Charles (1700 North Charles, Baltimore City) and across from the Charles Theater (John Water's hangs out there!). Get in your car and make it happen!
Get into it. DC people get off your asses and come party with us!
No more excuses!
