Is it finally actually spring yet?! There’s a lot of rain going on, but I still have to keep wearing that Eddie Bauer jacket to keep from freezing. Let’s all hope for blue skies and enjoy some of the most fun and innovative events New York has to offer!
Fri 31: Feminist Goddesses & Rebel Saints

The Alchemist’s Kitchen, 21 E 1st St, $20
I recently stopped drinking alcohol in non-social situations, mostly because I was worried it was getting excessive, but boy do I miss getting tipsy.
