Holiday Party Boos

Tis the season for you to wine and dine with all of the employees you hate and see them in all of their drunken glory courtesy of the company party. I love these holiday parties because everyone seems to lose their minds with two simple words "open bar". Enjoy the Free Debauchery that will take place but make sure you don't have on your beer googles and hook up with the weird guy from the mail room. In my profession (teaching) they're only like 2 guys there and they're not even cute so no worries for me. This is just a PSA for all you holiday party people!

Do you have a funny holiday party story? Share it here!!!

Waiter Boos

Have you ever been in a restaurant and the waiter is flirting with you double time? Not just flirting to get that good tip AND you have positively identified him/her as being straight. I mean you feel like they are really coming on to you. This has happened to all of us at some point. Don't you think it should be automatic for the waiter boo to pay for your meal....or at least hook you up with their discount. I mean if you think I'm cute and want to holla....hook a sista up. Especially in DC when the price of the meal cost the same as boosted $60 Northface coat off the street. I mean bread in this town is going to hit your wallet for $12.

Have you had success getting a free meal or meeting a waiter boo? Dish the dirt!

House Party Boos

This past Saturday, I threw my very first Grown-Up house party. It was aptly titled Breakfast at Tiffany's :-) The party was just like those old school ones your mama and them use to throw. People were dancing, playing cards and games with tons of food and drinks to go around. It was sooooo much fun and a cool way to see all of my friends from all aspects of my life mingle.

Then I got to thinking that this can be the first of many events and an opportunity to meet boos through friends of friends. The dating scene is looking a bit skimp, why not have my friends bring their hot, single, straight man friends to my parties so we can mix and mingle. This could be a very low-key way to meet some new hot guys...I mean new people.

What do you think is this a good idea or is dating your friends "friends" not a good idea and leads to unwanted weird tension?

I Like Them Boys Up Top From The BK.......

I recently went on my first trip to NY and man oh man did those up north boys have SWAG. They were also much nicer than I expected and CLEAN. I may have to revise my earlier statements professing my undenying love for "John Henry's" (country boys). I am starting to feel these dudes from up top. I need to stop being region biased.

What do you think are the best guys to date...North of the Mason Dixon Line or South of It?????

Mingle Mondays: Marvins on USt

A few of my lovely friends/sorors have decided to take over DC this summer and hit all the spots with something we can Mingle Mondays and Fly Girl Wednesdays. Last Monday we ventured to Marvins on Ust. It was a cute little bistro type spot with a rooftop space. It was pretty cool a mixed crowd about 2.5 cute guys were in attendance but they say normally the place is jumping but the rain might have kept the cuties away.

One funny thing happened.....THE INFAMOUS HAND IN THE POCKET WHILE I AM TALKING TO YOU trick. So these 3 O.G.s looking like they were in their late 30s early 40s come to talk to us and they all have their hands in their pockets talking bout "Did yall order some chip and dale dancers?" LOL....first off dude ur married, second ur old and third we don't wanna see know chip and dales we want to see black stallion and white chocolate at the male review with muscles....BEAT IT! That was the comedy for the night.

Marvin's a dope place to check out if you want a little music and nice expensive drinks but the vibe was good especially on Monday night but I would probably only post up on rooftop. That way u can clock all the boos coming in! For more info check out marvindc.com

Back Like I Left Something....EARLY!

Work Boos

I haven't had a work boo in years since college actually. You know having some cute eye candy that you kind of flirt with at work....a work boo. I've had a few in my college days and actually miss having some eye candy to look at. There are ZERO boos at my job.....ZERO. I don't know if it is representative of my profession (limited males) or if its just a DC thing.

As a rule most people don't date on the job but what about flirting? Do you work flirt? Have you ever dated someone on your job....on the low low? Let a sista know oh and if there are any cuties down where you work :-)

Should Relationships be 50/50?

I was randomly listening to some Teddy Pendergrass "When Somebody Loves You Back" and it came to the part at the end where he says "not 70/30 not 60/40 talking bout a 50/50 love". It really got me thinking.

Are relationships nowadays really 50/50 and should they be? Let me know what you think!!!

Spring Fling is Here

It's finally hot in the district. The cherry blossoms are here, my allergies are going haywire and the sandals are out.Which means more boos are going to prowling the streets and I will be right there meet them.

Will this be the year of spring fling and summer love in the DMV or will this be a repeat of a broken record that plays the melancholy melodies of the booless? STAY TUNED!!!

Natural Booness

So since the process hair got me nowhere....I have decided to embark on the journey of going all nat-u-ral! This was not just because of boos in fact this was more of empowering, liberating type of change I needed to make for myself. I'm going all in with sisterlocks and I'm really excited. What will be interesting is if I will get more play with em......hmmmm?? DC is the land of dreds and natural styles so we shall see. I will keep you posted!

Sincerely,

Sista Natural

Happy Valentine's Day Booless In DC Family!

Happy Valentine's Day Beautiful People. I know you were probably expecting me to rant and rave about a pending depression centered on not having a boo. Maybe you think I will write about how Valentine's Day is a conspiracy to make single people feel bad. The picture may have mislead you to believe that this post would be headed in that direction...but it was funny I couldn't resist lol. Yet, even though, I am a proud member of the Single Awareness Movement I will not TODAY because I'm actually feeling really GREAT. I am so thankful to have so much love from my Family and Friends that there is no need for me to crack open the Carmel Cone Ice Cream, watch Waiting To Exhale and listen to Ring The Alarm. You and I both know that is a lethal combination.

So I am taking life and love as it comes and enjoying the day!

No Worries....I will be back later this week with my Booless In DC Shenanigans but until then...Celebrate the LOVE you have and more importantly You!!!!

Where the Snow Boos @ ?

Nothing makes me happier than a snowstorm in DC. It's a time filled with massive closings which allow you to enjoy the comforts of your home. The one thing that would top it off is having a boo to be snowed in with.....well maybe...he would probably get on my nerves by day two but it's a nice thought. Well maybe by next snowfall I will have me a snow bunny boo that wants nothing more than to romance me in the snow...let me stop right there gotta keep this PG lol.

What are your snowed in plans???? Do you want to be booed up in the snow or left alone to have some peace?

Operation DC BOO Exposure 2010

So my good friend Kate and I will embark on a new plan in 2010. In order for me to give you an accurate picture of the shenanigans of the DC brethren and leave no area of this city unturned. We shall hit a new spot each month...different venues, parties, networking, sporting events whatever and bring you these encounters right here for you to read and laugh about. Get ready for new laughs and who knows I may meet someone halfway decent....we shall see....stay tuned!

Sincerely,

Booless In DC Guru

Mr. Bougie

I knew the day was coming when I would encounter him....As you know DC is a melting pot of characters and although I have been focusing on one extreme there is the other. So my girl and I go hit a live music spot with all the cool, hip, trendy, neo soul but with processed hair black folks on historic U St. There was one of the well dressed clean cut brother amongst the other trendy dressed guys who was looking my way so I said Hey. Then he gave me the stank face look like "how dare I speak". So I gave the look right back....Lol! FYI Mr. Bougie.....Ur Not That Hot...your outfit was nice but not nice enough to be RUDE!

How do you feel about bougie brothers/sisters?
