We are looking for cheapness without skeeziness or incompetence, basically. Free parking is a plus, but it looks like most of them have a reasonable fee ($10).
I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Ann, that's a ferret.
flea, forget my recommendation. It's a long way from Rosslyn. Or even a Metro station that could get you to Rosslyn.

Sunil's in town and hoping to get together for dinner tomorrow night. Who's in?
Tonight? Damn. I can't, because I'm going to dinner at Charlie Trotter's.

Roommate has been talking about it since forever, someone gave her money to do it, and I guess we're celebrating her recent birthday and my very belated birthday?
I just hope I don't embarrass myself. I've been to fancy places on the company dime out in Beverly Hills and Princeton, but this is a whole new level of fancy, man.

So, you can get Charlie Trotter's to go - but it's more of a catering thing than a take-out deal.
You must tell us if eating at his restaurant is like watching his show. I mean, will there be jazz?

I'll report back on the Charlie Trotter's experience! I'll try to enjoy myself, despite the fact that they serve bottles of wine that cost more than a used car.

I called ChiKat to see if she was going, but haven't heard back yet.
Just heard back from my boss, and I can take off early to come downtown for dinner--yay!

She's got a class at six, unfortunately.
New plan, in case you didn't get my message. 6:45 at Pizzeria Due - Gino's is closed for renovation. See you there!

Flea, there are some big chains in Crystal City (one bridge over from Rosslyn) that have good deals. There is a Courtyard Marriott, etc.
Plus, the hotels are all within walking of the Metro, which might mean not needing a car the whole time.
This one, I pass all the time and it seems to have gotten pretty good ratings: Americana Motel
I'm very interested in doing the folk life festival this year. Mekong and Northern Ireland. What a combo!
