That’s pretty much was Kidnapped by Craigslist was. [Best of Craigslist is a nationwide compilation of funny posts, look on the lefthand side of the craigslist screen for it] I went to this play on Friday night with two girl friends, and we were thoroughly entertained. The theater isn’t much, but the people were super…

Girly Movie Night in the Park
So I’ve been talking about free, non-drinking things to do, and I discover this round of Movies in the Park. It makes me laugh, though, because it’s the first I’ve heard of extraordinarily girly movies being shown in parks. Normally movies that appeal to both sexes are the ideal, but I guess we’ll see if…
A Play about Craigslist?!
If you know me at all, you know how much I love craigslist. I love the jobs, I love the apartment/real estate search, I love the groups, I love the activities, and most of all, I love the missed connections! So imagine my surprise, delight, and wonder when I read that there’s a play about…

Thanks, 4th of July, “today is like friday”
According to one friend (who is self-employed anyway, so I’m not sure what it matters to him), “today is like Friday” because no one has to work tomorrow. He’s referring to the downtown scene, of course. IS today like Friday? And will the rain showers deter anyone? And please, for the love, DON’T DRIVE DRUNK…

FREE sushi & sake at Imperia!
It sounds too good to be true, which is why I’m giving you such advance notice. Thursday July 3rd, Imperia introduces SUSHI to its already award-winning offerings. From 6-8, the restaurant will be serving complementary sushi and sake. I’ll be there. I haven’t been to Imperia, though it’s definitely on my list of want-to-go-there places.…
Sittin’ in Bouldin Creek Coffeehouse
Driving over here, I realized why people love Starbucks so much. I was nervous. Nervous to go to a freakin’ coffeeshop! But I didn’t want to look like the newbie. Regulars are nestled into their fave tables with their laptops and “the usual,” and I didn’t want to stick out like a sore thumb. I…
Speed Dating
So apparently we haven’t had speed dating in Austin before? I don’t know, as I meet all my dates in the gym or in the bars, but Speed Date Austin is welcoming itself to town with a party at Gruv this Friday night. The registration is full, but you can get on the wait list–and…
