This Weekend in the People’s Republic

Wowowow!  Summer’s great!!  Hanging out with friends all night, sleeping in all morning, putting off work all day (including this blog!  Oops!)…  Too bad I’m starting work eventually!

Well…  That’s not SO bad.  I would probably get super-sick of this schedule if I had it for more than a week…

The events this week are going to be a little Sunday-heavy as I hear that there’s some sort-of small nationwide holiday this weekend.  I would write my usual attempt at critical patriotism, but my brain’s gone to mush after graduation.  Once I’ve found my muse (which I think is lost somewhere in the waist-high, mini-Everest of clothes I have yet to get rid of) I’ll be sure to write you an epic’s-worth of prose for your enjoyment.

In the meantime, I’m going to share this little technological wonder, which will probably get me through this summer’s kick-its and mood-swings.  It’s like Pandora, but a little less natural selection, a little more intelligent design.  Which I’m kinda feeling right now…  At least for my entertainment needs!

Right now?  The beat of this summer has this song bouncing through my head.  And it will probably stay there for quite some time.

Happy Fourth of July, Davis!

Wine Tasting [DRINK + GIVE]

Davis Food Co-op

620 G St

6-8pm

$1/taste

In case you haven’t noticed the pattern by now, I’ll let you in on the secret:  wine tasting at the Food Co-op happens (usually) the first three Fridays of every month.  This week’s feature is South African Wines.  As always, benefits go to a local cause–this time around it’s Davis Farm to School Connection!  Drink up!

    Hyper-link to Grooveshark doesn’t work, but thanks for the tip. Looks neat – Happy 4th.

  2. That is good that we can take the credit loans and that opens new opportunities.
