On Thursday I attended a impromptu poker game and my friend T's and decided to work the bar and made $100. This could be a new job for me. Or I could work on my poker skills.
Music Midtown was all weekend in Piedmont Park in Atlanta. I was stubborn about not attending this year but given a super cheap ticket last minute, I decided to make an appearance. The set up was horrible for the stages but a music fest is a music fest and no matter the music you will find me there raging. And you can't beat this scenery for a show.
I snuck in vodka, wore my new skinnies, and ran into lots of old friends. Especially old friends of a certain old boyfriend. On the bad side, I lost my sunnies (my sixth pair this summer), we ended up a Clairmont Lounge - a strip club in Atlanta that features only (extra) large and older women. It is a dive but also a staple of the Atlanta scene. It is always a great time but one that requires a few extra drinks if you are planning on checking it out.
On Sunday we hit up Ormsby's. It was our favorites until it caught on to the rest of Atlanta but has a great feel and many of our good friends work there. Ormsby's is in the basement under Room+Board, it has amazing food (please, try the steak salad), an awesome beer selection, and two full Bocce courts - along with the usual darts and pool.
Check it out - we love it here!
