Drink With Me Next Wednesday! (I Know, *Shocking*)

by rachaelgking on April 2, 2010 · 48 comments

Hey all! It’s been far too long since I tipped back a beer with many of you, so in true LiLu form, I’m here to fix that.

On Wednesday (the 7th), Tonic in Columbia Heights (about 2 blocks from the metro; map here) is throwing a Cherry Blossom-themed Happy Hour to benefit Global Youth for Education and Change, a non-profit in South Africa that provides food, clothing and general care to children impacted by the HIV/AIDS pandemic. No cover charge and drink specials galore- what more could you want?

If you can come, RSVP here and let me know I’ll be seeing your pretty face! I know the bartender personally and she’s a doll among dolls.

That got weird.

But seriously, I hope you can make it. I’ll have my bells on. Or a boa. Or something equally ridiculous.

Now scroll down for your Friday happiness… 

Keep going…

TOLD YOU.

Happy weekend, lovebugs!

Have a stellar weekend!

I would love too, but… I work at Target that night. Puke. And I live 2 states away. And the car is slightly unreliable at the moment. One day we will have a tequila shot together, I know it!!

@Rahul, Thaat was the part that held my attention too. I think that makes us nerds.

I first read “rawberry” as “rawrberry.” That would be my new favorite drink.

God I wish I lived in the DC area! Or ANY area that had a bar with a cool themed/charity night like that. I’d love to come drink with you, and most likely be able to pen my own TMI Thursday story. Utah sucks. Enjoy!

24 Kara April 2, 2010 at 3:47 pm

Man, when I first discovered the Powerthirst video I nearly killed myself laughing so hard. I think that was almost three years ago, and I still manage to pee myself laughing!

25 Elly Lou April 2, 2010 at 4:13 pm

That made my throat hurt. Not unlike when I perform that “Let the Bodies Hit The Floor” song at karaoke.

32 Z April 3, 2010 at 12:33 am

Hopefully one day I will be cool enough to come to a happy hour… although I do have a coworker who goes to Tonic a lot and is always saying things like “bringing home the bitches” and then doing weird hand motions and wearing critter pants.

It’s not leaving a good impression
