But important change: This will be a permission-based service because I can’t assume that everyone wants to be on it. So, I won’t move blogs automatically from the dcblogs link list. If you would like to be included in the feed, please send an email dcblogs@gmail.com If you have an art preference; photo, screen shot, title only, let me know. If you want to make your own art please indicate. But hold off on making your own art just yet, because I’m still trying to figure out the pixel limit. […]

I often have one of those situations when I ordered something in my “not-so-hearing” voice and the waiter smiled like he understood what I ordered. Then when my order comes it’s something totally different and I wonder if that’s actually coq au vin prepared in some different method. After I have an epiphany that it’s not coq au vin, there’s that awkward moment when I have to beckon the waiter to return and try to explain the thing that tastes like fish is not what I ordered.

That made me laugh. I love number 4. I do that OFTEN, probably more so than I should. But with reason, sometimes it’s just a hassle to even put forth the effort. But sorry that your waiter wasn’t the best. it’s always a trial and error when it comes to going out in DC.
