Darts, beer, pizza and the library.
I met some friends last night for a few rounds of darts. We used to play every week, but after a couple of months that sort of faded as peoples’ schedules got busy. But people were free so we hooked up for Monday Night Football, darts and beer. Two hours later I had a vauge notion that Green Bay was covering the spread, and a more precise notion that we’d run up a substantial tab.
We walk-stumbled to Julias Empanadas, only to find that the place was closed. Closed on a Monday night? Jumbo slice pizza it was, and I woke up with tomato stains on my shirt. Good start to the day.
I called the D.C. Public Library about exhibiting some of my photographs. The conversation went like this:
“We only do solo exhibits if the work is of great quality.”
[pause.]
“Ok.”
I mean, really, what do you say to that?
“What type of work is it?”
“Street photography.”
“And what type of work would you want to exhibit?”
[pause]
“Photography.”
I love my city…
Not sure which Julia’s you were going to, but if it was the one on U St., this should provide a clue:

The second part of this post is very funny.
