Weekend Round-Up: 1/11-1/13

Weekend Round-Up: 1/11-1/13...

Happy Friday, y’all! It was 29 degrees when I woke up this morning. Well, that was outside. Inside, everyone in my house was taken out by fevers of much higher degrees. Flu season, we are thy victims. Oof. Still, because I was well up until 6:07 this morning, I had big plans for this weekend because there are a lot of fun things happening. I shall pass my plans to you, but just metaphorically, because I don’t want...
Puppet Sex: The Musical! Ave Q at Balagan

Puppet Sex: The Musical! Ave Q at Balagan...

Q: How do you know a musical is awesome? A: When you can say, “I loved the ‘gargle gargle, spit, catch, swallow’ the most.” (Bonus answer: And your friends know exactly which part you are describing.”) We at Yay-Today have a long history of loving those crazy kids at the  Balagan Theater. Their capable hands have worked magic with shows like Spring Awakening and Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along...
Weekend Round Up: 9/21-9/23

Weekend Round Up: 9/21-9/23...

Happy Friday, y’all. I hope you have had a good start to your day. So far, my day has included coffee, squash bread, and a stranger on the bus judging my Milli Vanilli Pandora station. (He can’t hang.) But delicious food and bitchin’ tunes is exactly the right way to rock into the weekend, so baby? Don’t forget my number. Or blame it on the rain. Or something. Whatever, it’s the weekend and there...
Jamfest: It ends tonight

Jamfest: It ends tonight...

It’s a shame I don’t visit the ID more often. I love it there. Usually when I go it’s just for festivals or a cheap foot massage or to snag yummy candies at Uwayimaya, but now that cheap foot massages are everywhere (re: way closer to me), festivals are a dime a dozen, and QFC started carrying those candies my reasonings to head (all the way) to the ID have dwindled.

Weekend Round-Up: 8/10-8/12

Weekend Round-Up: 8/10-8/12...

If you thought last weekend was summertastic, then say hello to the next three, glorious days. It might not be a lock-yourself-in-your-only-AC-powered-room kind of heat, but it’ll still be warm, sunny, and awesome. Enjoy it while it lasts! -Circus troupes, live music, and a logging show. Sounds like the 2012 Stillaguamish Festival of the River & Pow Wow is here. -Pack a picnic and enjoy a FREE concert at Seattle...
Weekend Round-Up: July 13-15

Weekend Round-Up: July 13-15...

If you are trying to hide this weekend, I hate to break it to you, but you can’t. Not with so much going on. Seriously, it’s like summer puked all over this weekend with fun, shiny unicorns and fairs and music and food and who knows what else. So I won’t take up any more of your time. Let’s get to the weekend, shall we: -Try to divert your eyes when you see that McD’s is promoting Dragon Fest 2012 in the...
It’s story time: Cheap, free and possibly win-worthy things to do to get your nerd on

It’s story time: Cheap, free and possibly win-wo...

I’ve been getting more and more into writing lately and because of this I somehow found myself searching for things around town and beyond to help me actually finish a story or two. Here are just a few of those findings that even if you aren’t a writer or story teller, you might enjoy as a listener: Photo courtesy of {ErinKphoto} aka redcargurl -Wing-It Productions has different shows going on almost every week. Since...
Your weekly SIFF: June 7-10

Your weekly SIFF: June 7-10...

Oh man, it’s the last week of SIFF. How did that happen? At least this year we’ve been blessed (errr) with totally shitty, cold, rainy weather–making watching movies inside totally worthwhile. Hope you’ve seen some good ones. If so, let us know. If not, let us know. Here are some we’ve seen. Photo courtesy of SIFF Welcome to Pine Hill: Think Precious meets the slow, yet intriguing vibe from...
Your weekly SIFF: May 31-June 6

Your weekly SIFF: May 31-June 6...

Here we are again, at the 3rd week and man does time fly. Pretty soon all of this will be over and we’ll go back to our regular lives not seeing movies every day and feeling sad. Let’s hold onto each other right now and embrace the time we have together, shall we? Okay, on with the movies!   Photo courtesy of SIFF Price Check: Who knew the corporate world of grocery store management would be filled with so...
Your weekly SIFF: May 24-May 30

Your weekly SIFF: May 24-May 30...

Hope you guys had a good 1st week of SIFF, but now it’s time to get serious and by serious I mean seriously awesome movies. Usually about this time is when it starts getting super sunny and no one wants to be indoors, let alone see movies (why SIFF doesn’t do the festival in the winter is still unknown to me). But I can assure you that these movies (errr, some of these movies if I have to be completely honest) are...
