Yuppie neighborhood in the city of Alexandria, VA a close-in suburb of Washington, DC. Very close to Old Town Alexandria. Think yoga studios, coffee shops, and young married couples with dogs. Pretends to be a small town. Has some kind of street festival like every weekend.
Let's go get a glass of wine the Evening Star tonight, in Del Ray.
Congested and frustrating road in Arlington, VA and Alexandria, VA. Goes all over the place and doesn't follow any patterns at all, so people who aren't very familliar with the area hate it. Also has a name that is apparently hilarious. Passes through Crystal City, Arlandria, Buckingham, Columbia Pike, Ballston, and Lee Highway.
This morning it seriously took me ten fucking minutes to make a left onto Glebe.
Tiny bar in the Clarendon neighborhood of Arlington, VA. Has bands most nights, and has been around longer than most of the stuff in the area. Mostly indie or hipster types, especially by Arlington standards.
We were going to Galaxy Hut until we remembered that it's karaoke night.
Washington, DC neighborhood that turns into a French Quarter-type hellhole during the weekend. After three you can enjoy the sounds of police begging people to please go home and watch the drunk assholes stumble across the bridge to the metro. Girls will be crying on their cell phones, with at least one heel broken and guys will be reminiscing about the evening's shouting matches.
Oh my god mom, I'm coming home from Adams Morgan...Jason was so mean to me tonight! He called me a bitch. Also, I broke a heel. It took me an hour and a half to find a parking spot and now I can't find my car!
A bar in Arlington, VA, near Fort Myer. Used to be frequented almost exclusively by rednecks and soldiers, though that's changed since they started having karaoke almost every night. Was one of the last places to offer a venue for awful teenage bands.
We went to the Royal Lee last night but had to leave at 9:00 -- damned karaoke.
A neighborhood and metro stop in Arlington, VA. Very urbanized and filled with office buildings, apartments, condos and, of course, dry cleaners. More sterile than the other areas of Arlington (which is saying something). Typical resident is the Arlington Girl. Rents are extremely expensive, for reasons unknown to all. Home of Rock Bottom Brewery. Wednesday is fire code violation night!
I'm so jealous, Sarah just got a studio in Ballston for $1300 per month!
Terrible bar in the Clarendon neighborhood of Arlington, VA that has somehow become the focal point of all social life in the county. It's on Wilson Boulevard.
Yes! There's an irish jam band playing at Whitlow's on Wilson tonight! I am SO ready to wait 15 minutes for a beer.
