the weekend, at last
Jan. 11th, 2011 12:58 pmI had such a busy weekend, it's taken me until Tuesday to do the writeup. Yeah, that's it. Not procrastination or anything.
Friday I babysat from 3 to 10, which meant I had enough money to splurge a bit at DC Big Flea the next morning. In addition to some old photos and a pin, I got two dresses-- a purple and white print dress with a cool button collar that I think I'll get a lot of wear out of, and a blue-and-green leaf print fancy dress that, alas, is a touch too big in the shoulders. If anyone with bigger shoulders than me is a size 8-10 and interested, let me know, because you can have it for $20.
Saturday night was the Max Levine Ensemble's 10-year anniversary show, which meant listening to cool bands at the Black Cat, seeing a ton of awesome people, and getting my feet stomped on when I ventured too close to the stage. Also, the line to get in was the second-coldest I have ever been in my life. But it was still really fun.
Sunday I went thrifting with
ellen_fremedon, at the big thrift stores on University and in White Oak. I just got a couple of books-- I think I used up my clothes karma at Big Flea.
Sunday night
srevans came over and we watched a bunch of Fifth Doctor. Boy, I love Five.
( Black Orchid was awesome from a costume nerd perspective. )
We also watched Enlightenment, ( which was also full of fun costuming. )
