Well, this is normally the time on Thursdays when I write about what's going on this weekend. What with Saturday forecast to be cold and raining... there ain't jack. Watch some football. See a movie (see Going to the Movies post tomorrow morning).
But with next Friday being Halloween, there are all sorts of spooky events afoot. Here are some of the entertainment options:
Tuesday
High Heel Race in Dupont. You wanna talk about getting your freak on... (hey I mean just as much the spectators as the participants, pipe down) A bunch of drag queens "race" down 17th St between R and Church streets Tuesday night at 9pm. This event draws HUGE crowds and is kind of one of those things that you can't really be considered a local until you've done.
Thursday
Hotel Helix's Helix Lounge is having their annual pumpkin carving happy hour next Thursday night. It's free (except your bar tab) - just show up at 6, get one of 30 pumpkins (first come, first serve) and carve away. Best carving gets a free stay, while scariest gets a prize valued at $50.
Friday
Hotel Helix's Helix Lounge is hosting Alice in Helixland - a charity costume party for Whitman Walker clinic. 7-10pm, 10$ entry includes 2 drink tickets.
Georgetown Events Happy Hour - I am in no way endorsing this event, held annually at the Post Office Pavilion. I'm pretty sure this is the one that someone was stabbed at least year. Tickets are $100 at the door and you can win big bar tabs at shitty bars like Smith Point. Costumes required.
Nightmare on M St Bar Crawl - hit the Dupont Bar Circuit in this yearly event - tickets are $20 if you register at the door at either Rumors or Front page - then 15 bars are participating with drink specials.
