Photos: Kathy Griffin at Borders

Did you know Kathy Griffin did a book signing at Borders yesterday? I didn’t either, since she tweeted a lot about signing at Barnes & Nobles, and then I forgot about it. Sorry, dear readers. However, intrepid readers and sometimes contributors Amanda Notarangelo and Ryan sent us their snapshots. It took them three hours to meet her, but she was apparently very gracious and happy to meet with her fans. If you’re sad you missed out, you can still spend an evening with Kathy at the DAR Constitution Hall tonight or Saturday night. Tickets are still available for either show.

Humpday Sales

Howdy, dear readers — I’m sorry I’ve been away for so long, but finals, snowpocalypse, and real life has intervened. But here I am, back again, trawling through craigslist to bring you the best last minute holiday gifts I could find!

Whooooo!.

Humpday Sales

Craigslist in FoBo is pretty unimpressive this week, dear readers, but I’ve tried my best. Mostly I’m upset because someone deleted their posting for free golden mystery snails. Yeah.

Gigs, shoes, whatever, inside.

Sartorial Sunday

Laura & LolaMeet Laura and her furry friend Lola (who clearly doesn’t live for the spotlight). I think everyone has figured out that I love a good coat, and tha, my dear readers, is a great coat. From Michael Kors, the aubergine is a nice alternative to a traditional black, and what you can sort of see in this photo is that it also has a hood, making it perfect for DC’s dreary season. I’m also a fan of patterned tights, and although Laura forbade me from showcasing them, she was also wearing some cute grey ballet flats.

Halloween Weekend To Do List

matwoodHappy Halloween weekend, dear readers! I hope you all have costumes planned out, and theoretically you might know what you’re doing in those costumes. But if you need a little inspiration, we’ve got events, drinking, and some intellectual pursuits happening this weekend. Even Margaret Atwood is doin’ it up big.
