birthday + bowling + byob

yesterday was my birthday.... i hit the difficult two-six.

to celebrate, i wrangled up some close friends for an evening of traditional baltimore duckpin bowling and byob.

hours of semi-wholesome fun, followed by the requisite drunk visit to Towson diner.


we found a magical hat


i wore my new LAMB dress


tiff and whit had a good time

Everyone Knows That Crime Pays, and Everybody Does It

Last Friday night, Ben, Tiff and I went up to the Talking Head to see Snakes Say Hisss and Bear Hands.

It was a pretty insane night - so I'll just leave it at that, and get on with the pictures.


Jamie from Snakes say Hisss


Dylan from Bear Hands

If you're not familiar with these bands yet, I highly recommend that you become familiar.

"Order Something Kosher.... Like Pepperoni"

Saturday night, we (me, tiff, ben, matt, mike, cory) went down to DC for Tiff's birthday.
We got a cheap hotel room for the night and partied at DC9, where Simon Phoenix, Cullen Stalin, Stereo Faith and LowBeezy (from Philly) were spinning.

It was an awesome night - drinking, dancing, drunk pizza ordering, slumber partying.

And I got some excellent pictures as well:

So far, 2011 has been a very fun year, thanks in no small part to the genius of TaxLo.
