Tonight was Rock 'n' Shop at the Black Cat:
An impressive array of stuff on sale, all handcrafted by local artisans, being sold to the tunes of excellent music spun by folks like DJ Neville Chamberlin. If you missed it and the Black Cat does this again, by all means go!
Last night I went to Frednecksburg to a friend's housewarming. It took almost two hours of hellish traffic down I-95 to get there, but the party was fun. And J and I made up for the trip by checking into a seedy Fredericksburg motel rather than going home the same night. It was one of those places where most of the residents appear to be living there, and the rest are there for illicit liaisons. I can see now why people request non-smoking rooms, because our room smelled like 100 people had been chain smoking in it for a month. Added to this was a sketchy heating system that made an incredible amount of noise.
The one bonus was that "South Park" was on TV when we checked in, a funny episode about Jared, the Subway guy who lost weight. Also, the window was cool:
The other bonus was a great diner where we had hot cakes the next morning for breakfast. And there was no traffic on the way home, 30 minutes door to door.
