There are an exorbitant number of happy hours and events tonight, some because it’s Thursday and some because Valentine’s Day is a great excuse for free drinks and snacks, and to sell some stuff in some stores. No matter your leaning, take advantage of a plethora of Thursday-night ideas–and end up at Twestival! Loosely arranged…

More Valentine’s Day Fun
Remember how I suggested in my last Heart Day post that somewhere to go sans reservations would be Daily Juice or Whole Foods? Turns out Daily Juice is hosting a chocolate party and Whole Foods is hosting a Singles event–but that’s TONIGHT, Wednesday, so you’re probably still safe to head there Saturday night. Whole Foods…
A few thoughts on Valentine’s Day
I love Valentine’s Day. I’m the girl who makes something for all her friends to show them how much she loves them and because she doesn’t want them to feel left out on such a lovey holiday (also, usually single). But I like that more than the stereotypical romantical Valentine’s Day–could have to do with…
Weekend Watch: free yoga, crazy marathoners, and grand openings
lululemon on 6th & Lamar does free yoga classes taught by rotating instructors from around the city every Saturday morning, but they’re usually way too early for me. This time, however, they’re honoring the two crazy Canadians who are running a marathon a day to help save the environment, and they’re gonna be there doing…
Super cheap magazines!
Wow, I’ve been running across some great deals lately! Looks like I’m doing my part to fuel the economy, even if it is at discounted rates … I’ve always thought that you should never pay full price for a magazine subscription, because here’s a secret: they don’t make money off your subscription. They make money…
Free Week – Free live music all week!
FREE WEEK is from now until January 10th and is just a big week of free music! Emo’s, Beerland, and Transmission Entertainment worked together to coordinate the freeness, and do512 compiled a mega-list of all the shows that are free this week! Thanks! Their Top Picks page lists most of the shows, but they’ve also…
First Impression: Free Crossfit Workout
So I hit up the free Crossfit workout Wednesday night, and it was a lot of fun. I haven’t been able to go back since, and I want to, because I think there’s got to be more to it than I experienced. I had fun, but here’s the breakdown: Wednesday was a team session. After…
FREE Crossfit Workouts
So I’m running around Town Lake last night and stumble upon one of my closest friends supervising a Crossfit workout … what?! Oh, you mean I should have read the email I got from you? … Anyway, point is: more free Crossfit workouts–yay! I’ve tried to explain Crossfit before and never been able to. I…
Do something good: Blog Action Day 08
Today is Blog Action Day 2008. Never heard of it? Me neither. BUT it’s a good thing: bloggers (grrr, I hate being called a blogger) unite against poverty, in whatever way a particular blogger wants to. I’m going to use it as a jumping off point to encourage you to check out kiva.org. Kiva has…
ACL … I can’t handle it
I just can’t handle ACL. I went all out last year–open to close, all three days, media tent, afterparties and aftershows–and I think I just burned myself right out. Instead, I will be walking myself to tailgating and the UT game. Trying to drive or cab anywhere south of Enfield this weekend is going to…
