“Dear PoPville,
If you’re a guy who voted in Rosslyn on Election Day, please keep reading — though our interaction was brief and strictly professional, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about your cute smile!
I was checking in voters in the morning, so this probably would have been around 7am or 8am. I was wearing a dark sweater and gray glasses.
Though you gave me your name, I genuinely don’t remember it to be able to find you, but you may have been wearing a blue windbreaker type of jacket? (Blue because you voted for Dems, I hope!) And you have dark, curly hair I think?
If you felt any kind of vibe (beyond just the usual excitement of democracy in action), do reach out! Would love to learn more about you over coffee or a drink.”

“Dear PoPville,
See attached the lovely notes left by my Logan Circle neighbors after the alarm on my parked car apparently went off intermittently one night.
I had no idea the alarm was going off. It’s an older-model Honda, parked some distance from my apartment, so I neither heard it nor have an app that sends notifications as newer models now have. I can certainly understand how the noise would have been annoying to those living nearby. But (more…)

Thanks to Emilie for sending: “Spotted at Maison Bar à Vins last night!”
Ed. Note: Last week they were spotted filming at Rye Bunny, also in Adams Morgan.
Ed. Note too: I finally had the chance to eat at Rye Bunny (1827 Adams Mill Road, NW) and they deserve every single word of praise they’ve been getting. So so good. Honestly the best restaurant I’ve eaten at in 2026. If you haven’t been yet, put them on your list!

“Dear PoPville,
I sadly had to say goodbye to my cat Lola this past Thursday night. While at the ER, Lola spent a few hours in an oxygen chamber near a dog, whose people were very kind to me. I was in a cloud of distress leaving the VEG Georgetown office. The woman ran to catch me, and offered me a hug. Her act of kindness and that genuine heartfelt hug made me feel less alone. I want to thank her and encourage others to offer humanity and kindness to strangers. I hope her dog is doing okay.“
