TEAM WORK!
Last night Corcoran partnered up with the Australian embassy to bring the young professionals of DC an evening of wining and art and people watching, as part of their 1869 Cultural Cocktails program.
It was really a swell time, even if we (as in, anyone to do with BYT) were criminally underdressed, which then moved to a completely mobbed scene at 15 RIA down the street.
You should come next time they do it.
You should also not wear jeans.
Speaking of jeans.....
We brought Tig Notaro, noted comedian (she's on "The Sara Silverman Program" people) and underdresser, who is MCing our Inaugural spectacular with us to see her mingle with DC people.
This is what transpired.
Be excited and afraid and EXCITED about TUESDAY.

"Hey everybody - just wanted to let you know I'm going to be going to bed in about 10 minutes, so, you know..."
this looks more like a cougar hunt than anything else
Tig sounds like an LNS name.
when I hear "Tig Notaro" I think "awesome Jedi name".
Yeah!!!! I saw her in person!
Oh really? Did you?! Wow! Where?! I'm fucking so intrigued...
just to be clear. i did not actually kiss tig. as far as i can remember...
