* Can’t find the single men in Washington? Try Chipotle or New York. [Good at Drinking, Bad at Life]
* Baltimore residents get $2,000 for buying a home near their place of employment. [urban trekker]
* Local blogger happy hour tomorrow night at The Front Page. Don’t go unless you are prepared to discuss the confusing, Wheel of Fortune-esque Best DC Blog. [ArJewTino]
* Farmer’s market possibly coming to R Street between 1st and Florida. [In Shaw]

  • “Road Head - m4w…I drive a luxury vehicle.” [Craigslist]
  • Lovers’ Happy Hour tonight at Cafe Citron hosted by DC Bachelor and Circle V. You know, the “I pump and I dump” guy and the girl who “never makes drama.” See you there. [DC Bachelor]
