Drekkers in DC

Post by Patience »

I'm moving from Atlanta GA to the DC area (North Bethesda) in a few weeks, and am feeling horribly uprooted. Anyone in the DC area want to show me where the Rolling Rock is reliably cold?

*bigeyes* :aww

I've visited DC several times, but unfortunately I couldn't tell you of anyplace that great to go. Well, unless you like sushi. I remember this one sushi place there that was damned good... Now just to remember the name.

*grumble* That would be the problem with going someplace good during times I'd rather forget.
_There are some who say that Time is itself a hammer: that each slow second marks another tap that makes big rocks into little rocks, waterfalls into canyons, cliffs into beaches.
There are some who say that Time is instead a blade. They see the dance of its razored tip, poised like a venomous snake, forever ready to slay faster than the eye can see.
And there are some who say that Time is both hammer and blade.
They say the hammer is a sculptor's mallet, and the blade is a sculptor's chisel: that each stroke is a refinement, a perfecting, a discovery of truth and beauty within what would otherwise be blank and lifeless stone.
And I name this saying wisdom.

I think you might be the first DC Drekker...

Dru, who really wasn't a drekker, was from DC if I remember correctly.

Kai at one time was a DCer from her comments about driving the beltway often...

Well, there aren't many of us who could. I think most of us are under the loving gaze of the FBI/NSA/Secret Service..... ;)

I may or may not end up in DC eventually. I also may or may not end up in the CIA or NSA eventually. Wouldn't that be fun - not only is the NSA watching you, you have members of it as part of the group. Infiltrators, if you will. ;)

My brother is already in the area, and I have several friends down there, but I know little of the nightlife - and for most of the people I know, I doubt they know much more of it. I could help you get in touch with some of them, though - in particular, you might want to meet one of my friends who worked on Carol Mosley-Brown's campaign. Next time I visit down there, we should get together, have a mini-party or something. Wheee. :roll

I swear, on my honor as Patience's minotaur-friend (no boys here, thank you very much) that there will be much colonizing indeed.

Is your icon from Monday night's Daily Show? Both John Stewart and his guest had that exact suit on (one each....not the *same* suit. That'd be a bit strange. Then again....)

Nope. Brooks Brothers. All the style I would want, and hopefully soon I'll be able to afford it.

I'm sorry, I just realized I didn't respond to your post yet. Bad me. :)

Definitely come visit. We've got a spare bedroom and we'll be in North Bethesda, right on the Metro line. It should be fun.
