I always thought I identified with cats-- my mom used to call me "lion's eyes," big cats are my favorite animals, and when I get really hungry... well, it gets ugly. So I am shocked to find that cats cannot taste things that are sweet. Not just that they don't like them, they can't taste them at all... what a sad, sad existence.
Anyway, I just came across a couple of things to do in DC that look like fun group activities: You can brew your own beer at Shenandoah Brewing Company. I don't even like beer, and I think it looks cool! Apparently its about $200 for 5 cases(120 bottles)... so less than $2 a bottle, you just need to get a group together. Another beer activity is Brew-At-the-Zoo, a charity event where a ticket gets you unlimited "hand-crafted" beer from a bunch of different breweries, a number of which I know my significant other enjoys, at the Zoo. There will also be music and free appetizers from several restaurants.
Also, I just read about personal karaoke rooms at a place called Cafe Muse in Annandale... This Saturday is also the annual and FREE Stone Soul Picnic at RFK Stadium, with Toni Braxton, Chuck Brown, Morris Day & the Time, Dwele, some Gospel... And of course next week is restaurant week, which I am doing for the first time. I'm going to Ceiba and Galileo, and I can't wait! And I still haven't done Jazz in the Garden, but with the weather so nice, I may go tomorrow. Here's the line up for the rest of the season.
Finally, free film festival in Bethesda from August 12-21, with lots of new and older movies, such as Harry Potter 3, Million Dollar Baby, Ray, West Side Story, The Birds, Grease... look at the website for the whole schedule.
Oh I just saw this!!! "According to our friends at DCist, on Friday Dupont Circle will become the first corporate sponsored wireless hotspot in the District. A user will be able to go to the Circle, turn on their laptop or PDA and browse the Internet as long as they want free of charge. Nice." That is so awesome!!
And finally, here are some recommended (not by me, but give them a try anyway) bike trails: -- Capital Crescent Trail -- Mount Vernon Trail -- Rock Creek -- W & OD Trail
