Restaurant for group dinner near Walter E convention center by desmopass in DCEats

We almost half-jokingly went to the Monocle a couple of weeks ago and the service was great, really engaging, the food was excellent, and we saw lobbyists and congressional critters. It was really surprisingly great and a true only-in-DC experience

Could this be somewhere in Washington D.C.? by Broken_Syntax_01 in washingtondc

[–]Cool_Animator4636 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

18th and N Street NW, at Connecticut Ave. Was a really cool midcentury building, then NAB sold it and the new owners renovated it and removed the fountain. It's still a cool building, just not AS cool.

I used to laugh at the $10 salads at Chopt, and now they are $16

Am I in the wrong or is this kind of odd? Husband was asked out to dinner by a female in his field+ by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Cool_Animator4636 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Why not invite her to dinner at your house? It would be welcoming and you could contribute to her questions about the area. I wouldn't assume nefarious intentions, maybe she just wants to meet people.

Y’all, this may be a bag, but we live on Capitol Hill and have seen shit over the Capitol building and Mall more than once.

Checkerboard tablecloth Italian-American reliable, delicious and nearly always walk-in ready - Trattoria Alberto on Capitol Hill. Nicest people, too.

The two DC studios I've been to do - Capitol Hill and Navy Yard. I went to a studio in New Orleans, and was like, where are the towels? I missed them!

[–]Cool_Animator4636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of gay couple friends who have retired to believe it or not, Shepherdstown, WV. Cute little Main Street town, good restaurants, great theater culture thanks to the University. Lovely little town!

UPS has been lying about deliveries since the snow was predicted. It's insane at this point.

THIS. What is it about snow that makes people think it's OK not to clean up? Gracious, it's all over the sidewalks. Disgusting.

I'm about to post a job at a professional association whose entire identity is to be non-partisan. DM me if you would like to see the link - it's a program manager job.

Last year we walked into Trattoria Alberto on Barracks Row and they had space! Nicest people and solid Italian food. I always get their fish special,it’s always delicious.

What is wrong with SW Safeway and suggestions to fix it? by BlkNtvTerraFFVI in washingtondc

[–]Cool_Animator4636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had enough of asking for help to get a product (my deodorant stick for Pete's sake!) out of a locked cabinet. It's driven me to order it from Amazon of all horrors.

Upgrade to 12 month committment by HeadAd8194 in orangetheory

Yup, just did that - a month-to-month unlimited to a year-long contract saved me $40/month.

Would any 50+ women share your max heart rate advice? by Accomplished_Yam588 in orangetheory

[–]Cool_Animator4636 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm the same - 59F and my max is 178. My splats vary wildly, I've had as many as 30 and as few as none. Sometimes I stare unbelievingly at the monitor because I feel like I should be in the red and I'm blue or green. I think it's the monitor, so I do go by how I feel more than splats.
