Missed Connections – Blaguard on Valentine’s Day and The Apollo (H St) lobby, 2nd floor

“Dear PoPville,

Missed connection at Blaguard on Valentine’s Day. We had a three-way conversation with the bartender about his dog. I was at the end of the bar wearing a gray sweater and sporting what my mom very recently referred to as a “cute Beatles mop top if you would just lose the ugly mustache and beard”.

In any case, maybe you would like to meet back at Blaguard sometime for another beer.”

“Where: The Apollo (H St) lobby, 2nd floor

We were sitting across from each other for about an hour or so on Friday (2/11) on the 2nd floor of the Apollo lobby on H St. When I showed up, you were on the phone giving your friend solid dating advice about some guy who just didn’t seem into her. (Yes, I was definitely eavesdropping.) You were wearing red, and me a black shirt. We exchanged a couple glances, including right when you were leaving and looked up to me from the 1st floor. I’d love to buy you a coffee or drink. (You were clearly gorgeous, and seemed really well-adjusted from your call…)”

Ed. Note: If this is you, please email [email protected] so I can put you in touch with OP. PoPville is not affiliated with either party, please proceed with any potential connection at your own risk using caution as you would any online encounter. For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made. Last week’s S2 Bus MC was made!

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
