that go-go swing
chuck brown is the man behind the beginnings of go-go, which is dc's best music: a combination of funk and rock (and, more recently, hip-hop), with lots and lots of percussion. i went to see him at the 9:30 club a few weeks ago and was in the front row. he is 73 years old and he still dresses sharp, plays hard, and makes ridiculously good dance music.

and the feeling is easy
summertime. a few last shots to commemorate the end of the season.
luigi swimming in a river during weekend break at my job. hooray, my camera is waterproof!
this, to me, pretty much exemplifies what summer should look like: love, dirt, rocks, water, and "jewelry" that can stand up to it all.
dancing dancing dancing, and wearing crazy prints.
smoothie in a metro station, en route to a club on u street in dc. i've basically spent the last month, since work ended, doing nothing except hanging around the city and seeing people, going out day and night and just exploring. u street is especially incredible at night--you can walk up and down u or 14th at 11 pm on a weekend night and people are spilling out of every doorway, dressed excellently, eating or listening to jazz or going dancing. my friends and i found this crazy caribbean hole-in-the-wall cafe on u where there is always loud soca music playing, and they sell pizza slices as long as your forearm, and THEY HAVE MULTIPLE DISCO BALLS. in a cafe. it is insanity.
