Did you go to the Leslie Hall show at DC9 on Friday (Their 4th Anniversary)?
What did you think of TAINT this weekend?
Is Blowoff still throwing a great party now that TOWN has opened?
Anyone attend the Benefit for Girls Rock DC or the Phasefest "Rocky Horror" benefit?
Let's chat, Cathy.

Well I didn't do any of the aforementioned, but I did have a Chatty Cathy doll that used to belong to my mother.
The music at Blowoff was off the hook this Saturday, and there seemed to still be a lot of TOWN-ish people there despite its reputation as a Bear-popular event. The crowd at Blowoff is always a different mix every time I go.
Has anyone else here misatakened the site for www.thenewgay.com?
Ms. C, it's a shame that you were not out last night at DC9... you were missed. :)
i've totally gone to thenewgay.com. i was momentarily shocked, but didn't turn away.
and if i had a nickel for every time i've been called chatty cathy...well i'd have like 10 bucks or something.
Dear Chatty Cathy, I’m so sorry that your parents dressed you in gingham and daisy dukes and left you alone on a swing. I’m sure they weren’t really planning to sell you to pedophilic truckers. Although, I could make that sound more convincing if they hadn’t put so much lipstick on a six year old. Jeez kid, I just feel awful for ya!
What was that… what did I do this weekend? Oh, I went to see Leslie Hall. Yeah, she’s real nice… maybe I could get her to bedazzle your face on a sweater for that Amber alert that we’ll put out on you later. Good homespun girl, that Leslie. I’d make a mix tape for you of her songs… but I don’t know where you’ll be later. Sad. But trust me, the tape would be fierce… I’d name that mix tape “Gold.” How gold? Maybe Country Music Legends gold, I don’t know.
Yeah, it was a good time. There is still a thin veneer of Yuengling in my nose from a period of uncontrolled laughing during “keep it real” … ha ha, good times! What’s Yuengling? Oh, it’s just something some people will be drinking when they see your face on the news later… don’t worry about it. And I have to say, I’ve never felt more prepared to defend the city from the lurking threat of zombies. Although, now I wish maybe one of the songs had advice about people left at rest stop playgrounds. Oh well, she can’t cover ever topic lyrically I guess.
But I can teach you how to spot a Midwest diva, just for fun. All you have to do is ask yourself… is she wearing lots of mesh? Check. Is she wearing lots of attitude? Check, check. And that’s all there is to it! Yeah, pretty easy.
Okay, it was nice chatting Cathy. Let’s catch up again soon!
Anonymous#2, I love you. You can chat with Cathy anytime.
Anonymous#1, what's funny is that in the months I've written for this site, I never looked at TNG.com until I saw your comment. I remember the convo with the others about how "TNG.com was already taken", but it was an empty site when we started. Oh well. I think it's kind of appropriate that our alter-ego/shadow side is a sex site showcasing twinked-out dirty butt twinkies.
Ben, I didn't check tng.com till now either!
And Anonymous #2 should email me.
I mean't I love anonymous#3!!
Why can't people make up a damn name?
Yesterday's weather was great starting out. I love how the air smells differently depending on temperature. The warm dampness reminded me of green, happy, summery things...then I remembered how last August I trudged from Dupont to U St. every day in 95 degree weather with 100 percent humidity and arrived in the office every morning with massive pit stains and hair gel melting down my temples.
That was pretty cool, I guess.
Dearest Cathy-
Forgive me, I didn’t mean to make your life any harder. In fact, just last night I went out and bought a CB radio so we could still chat while you were locked away in some trucker’s sleeper cab.
And, not to be bitchy, but please direct blame for my uncouth use of anonymity to the Comment Squad Tryout Committee (CSTC). I assumed I was put on the Junior Varsity Squad for my excessive use of ellipses, and because my straddle jump was below regulation height. Apparently I just needed greater proficiency with the “submit comment” buttons (which makes so much more sense... because for real my staddle jump is damn good, I’m just saying). I don’t want to point fingers, but Mikey-Mike may not have properly critiqued my only previous post. Feedback, people… that’s what’ll take this team to Nationals! :)
Anywho Cathy, I should get going. Think of me while you’re on the interstate. Try to remember the good times we had (in my imagination, talking outside of the rest stop… in real life, meeting outside the bathroom at the Leslie Hall concert). Hmm, I can see that only a limited amount of comfort will be gleaned from our brief friendship. Oh well.
Take care,
Anon#3
