  • Halloween Party At Songbyrd DC 2024

    Halloween Party At Songbyrd DC 2024

    By Andrea Menzies

    Here are my top photos from the Halloween party at Songbyrd DC friends helped me attend. The costume contest with the Queen of the Damned and Aliens was great! Dancing to an amazing retro 80s DJ was great. DC even has a University street called Avenue Q, and I was parked near there. It was also great to get slightly away from the garbage hole of Virginia I hate completely. Unfortunately they announced the party was over at 11:30 PM closing time. What is this a crazed super Christian town from the Footloose movie? When I went to dance clubs in Texas they didn’t close until 2 AM, and later on Halloween. When I went to dance clubs in New Orleans they closed at 4 AM around Halloween. Clubs did not even start shows until 10 PM at night on week nights when I went to New Orleans a few years ago. Around Virginia they think night life starts around lunch time which sucks crap. It was a vivid reminder of why there are many fact reasons I am always trying to leave this area for every holiday, and will leave again in the future. DC was not far enough away at all which was dog poo sacks of disappointing.

  • Pomegranate Tales

    Pomegranate Tales

    By Andrea Menzies

    Many people know that Persephone was married to Hades due to eating candy-like pomegranates. However, the yearly time she went back to the underworld was October. This is an often overlooked origin to the Halloween story, and spirits traveling the roads of the Earth from the underworld in October asking for candy. The holiday was popular time for travel.

  • Event Nights

    By Andrea Menzies

    There are good events happening in DC and Maryland it turns out in 2024. I thought my Halloween was destroyed by the need for car and RV emergency repairs. I had planned to go to Texas and New Orleans to see childhood school friends for the holiday. I am single so I was hoping to talk to guys. I have met nothing but the most grotesque and abusive human sewage ever born going out in Virginia downtown so that is never happening again. A lucky break happened in that friends are going to DC and Maryland for events there, and can give me a ride. Halloween 2024 is not my wishlist dream, but it will have some fun things to do.

  • Mini RV Cancel

    By Andrea Menzies

    I have a mini RV, but the hitch rusted apart and broke. This has cancelled my New Orleans travel for October. Next time I will just get a hotel, or plan to sleep in a sleeping bag in my car. I wanted to carry more stuff, and have more room when traveling. I thought I could travel more often, and longer, and not needing hotels in an RV. The RV has been an epic money pit, and it was eating my travel money. If I had taken the payment money for the RV and put it in a travel account it would have done twice as well. The rust bucket has destroyed my October as I did not go to many concerts I wanted to see locally as I was purchasing supplies for the RV. Then it rusted over and broke when I tried to use it today! It sucked! I am selling it off this time for sure!

  • Early Voting

    I managed to get my ballot and do early voting this week at the library. The election this year is NOT a good one to skip.

  • Trip Delay

    By Andrea Menzies

    October always means I want to see friends and family from the past. I was heading to New Orleans and then Austin, Texas to see friends, family, and music shows. Unfortunately I got sick and had to go to the hospital emergency room yesterday. I am therefore only going to be able to see New Orleans on Halloween with no concerts. For Austin music I am going to miss October entirely. I will have to go on longer trips later on because there are just too many limits this month. Better late than never. I am seriously considering moving to another town, and so travel back and forth will not be such an issue. I hate Virginia with all of my soul, and so any reason to get out of it is a good one in my book.

    A video of how great the jokes and comments were on my Birthday on Facebook. A clear demonstration of how much better my life was when I did NOT live in my current town and state. It is so desperately obvious I must move away. #birthday #birthdaygirl #friends
