A year ago, went to the Orlando Public Library & requested files from the Disney Collection (just for fun, I’m a nerd)… including from #MuppetVision3D… truly a one-of-a-kind piece of multimedia art & Henson’s last project. Hope there’s new life for it somewhere someplace.

First stop on Around the World Embassy Tour day… Thailand. Food, dancing, music, and Thai massages.

Petworth Porchfest is always great and a ton of fun.

Attended a fancy dinner last night & wore a bowtie.

Also, went sans glasses but couldn’t see so put them back on. Lesson learned.

Breaking Montgomery County tax news: County Executive Marc Elrich is pulling his proposal to increase property taxes by 3.5% and is instead now proposing to raise the county income tax rate by .01% to 3.3%.

A fantastic vintage find… a silver Capital Centre 10th anniversary jacket. The Landover, MD arena was home to Washington Bullets & Capitals for 30 years. Plus, where WWF (now WWE) got its start.

The arena was demolished in 2002.

Didn’t quite fit me, but already regretting not just getting it.

Find yourself an ice cream spot that has movie props from Mission Impossible 3 and a signed photo on the wall of James Cromwell holding Babe, Pig in the City.

Every Home Depot should have a stand in the parking lot that sells Philly Cheesesteaks & plays Jamiroquai. Had the chicken & cheese, actually quite good.

Same goes for Shayla Adams-Stafford... now with a near 400 vote lead.

Braveboy's lead holds as more results are posted... a 3,000 vote lead over now second place former county executive Rushern Baker.

Not sure how many votes are left to count, but Braveboy's lead will be hard to surmont.

In the District 5 race, former Board of Education member Shayla Adams-Stafford currently holds a rather large lead... securing nearly half of the votes counted so far in the six-candidate Democratic primary race.

As soon as I hit send... mail in ballots and some in-person votes are posted for County Executive... State's Attorney Aisha Braveboy currently holds close to a 3,000 vote lead over second place Jolene Ivey.. who is no longer running.

Legacy on Ice at Capital One Arena, honoring the 67 lives lost in Jan’s DCA plane crash and the D.C. & Fire EMS first responders who worked that night. Lots of families and young athletes in attendance. Quite emotional.

Date night in Rockville… went to Teso Life, a Japanese department store where I mostly hung out in the snack aisles. And Meow Claw… a claw machine arcade. Won a pink dinosaur.

Pretty busy late afternoon at the D.C. Record Fair at 9:30 Club. Scored a highly coveted (at least to me) record of the “First Lady of Musical Comedy.”

We finally made it to cherry blossom trash bag season.

Great to see a ton of scenes in the new Captain America were filmed on location in D.C.

But if you like your cherry blossom trees upright, I’m not sure this movie is for you.
