Eyeballs and Butterflies


These were originally intended to be 2 separate posts, but because my friend Ann kills (and inspires) me when it comes to timely blogging, she did it first. The eyeballs are hanging at Pike & 11th (just down from the Satellite). I actually forgot where I saw the butterflies (I was on my evening constitutional). Pretty sure it was either Thomas or Harrison and between Summit and Belmont. I've heard there are more elsewhere on Capitol Hill, but I haven't noticed any. I just think both things are so great. I love it when someone comes up with a cool artistic idea and shares it with everyone (and then I can share it with you).

Fairewell D&G

I could write pages about this, but this isn't really the right venue for it. I love Divya and Gautam and they moved to D.C. this weekend (the mass exodus continues). They had a going away party at a cafe on Capitol Hill called Faire. I've been there several times (usually with them). I also really like their friend who runs the place. It's a great space with great people. Swing by if you ever have a chance. I keep meaning to go on a Sunday for a big glass of wine and the free Jazz. This past Friday I went to swap stories with other friends about D&G and watch my favorite local band, Motorcade, play (unfortunately sans-Casey) what was possibly their last show. Bye D&G, I'm going to miss you guys.
