AFTERNOON INTERLUDE: BLOGGER NAVEL-GAZING EDITION.

I would like to note that my house, which also contains bloggers, is significantly cleaner than the Flophouse. You can, however, see Brian Beutler, my roommate, sitting on the right at minute 2:24:

Hilarious! I'm nostalgic now.

I remember a comment you made a week or so ago (?) about how cabbies give you a hard time about your neighborhood....a friend of mine used to live up 'round 13th & T in about 1996 and he said it was very important that he and his housemates actively befriended the folks in the crackhouse down the street - for their own safety.

I lived in Clarendon at the time, when what's now that obnoxious shopping center with the Crate&Barrel was just a vacant lot, where the South Arlington-based drug dealers would dump their stolen cars. We didn't walk to the 7-11 alone at night, that's for sure (we made our cute neighbors escort us). But ay! what a great party house it was!

Sigh. I'm so old now.

Party on, Garth!

In fairness, our house was WAY messier than usual the day of the shoot. We were stooping the night before. Ask Phoebe, she knows.

Ezra--The only reason the Flophouse gang seems so cool is that they have a name for their house. Solution: name your house! I vote for "The Fophouse."
