video: we’re uh… NOT the dancers

It seems to have been the week for men in leotards. I haven’t been watching Prototype This! very much since it’s pretty much Mythbusters with less explosions and seeming more scenes of them hurting themselves. I honestly haven’t been a...

gadgets: Ba-boop! Pizza’s here!

sushi: would you like a Happy Santa?

Michael’s birthday was this past week so he, James and I headed to Momiji in Chinatown for dinner. They’ve just recently opened and while I can’t recall what was there before, this place seems to be a vast improvement. The...

happy hour: mini-DC blogger meetup

My first sorta blogger meetup was at a Nationals Game, the next was a surprise party for Liz. In general I don’t do meetups because I don’t really read all that many blogs belonging to people. Mostly they’re by people...
