you and tequila make me crazy.

Soon, I will be working at a place that I truly support. It is an Atlas District restaurant/bar, the H Street Country Club. This establishment will feature Tex-Mex food, unique drink options, and a gaming area that includes pool, shuffleboard, skeeball, and 9 holes of indoor miniature golf.

The setting radiates a whimsical aura, with each detail artistically thought out. For example, one of the mini-golf holes boasts Marion Barry as The Awakening. This is definitely a place where relaxation, letting loose, and fun are encouraged. It is an ironic play on the hoity-toity exclusivity of country clubs. No reservations will be taken, but HSCC will be available for private parties.

There is a no-fuss downstairs menu, with low-priced bar food and a more Texan focus. Upstairs they pulls all the stops including duck and lamb entrees and delicious pairings. The wine list is amazing and the house drinks are complex. There are 20 types of tequila and an endless list of new things to try.

And since this is leaking all over the internet, I expect to see all of you out there for the Grand Opening, next week, on May 27th. Get ready for the excitement!

he's phony, she's fake...

...that's the type of people I hate.


I am not known to be Jadakiss's biggest fan, but this song is highly addictive. The real gon' win, the fake gon' lose.

my thoughts are getting banal.

When I started REALLY listening to Blur, Parklife (1994) was my favorite of their albums and I still thought Oasis were the superior group. A lot has changed in the past 3 years. I adore Blur and cannot stop revisiting Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). Every song is meticulous. In fact, my blog name comes from the line "She's a twentieth century girl" out of "For Tomorrow."


I would really love to see Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James, & Dave Rowntree performing together again. I'll leave the music to speak for itself, and conclude with lyrics from "Blue Jeans," one of my favorite songs ever.
and don't give up on me yet/ dont think i'm walking out of this/ she don't mind/ whatever i say, whatever i say/ i don't really wanna change a thing/ i wanna stay this way forever.


Edit 5/20/2009: Blur have announced reunion shows and plan to add US and European dates. Yes!
