“Dear PoPville,

I was on my way home from the airport Sunday afternoon,

trailing a suitcase and wearing the same black jacket and white shirt I had just spent the night partying in in Tokyo. Waiting for the red line train at Metro Center, I locked eyes a few times with a cute girl wearing a Georgetown shirt before we both boarded together. She was talking to her friend, who seemed like she was visiting from out of town, and I was too polite or perhaps just tired from jetlag to interrupt their conversation — though I wish I had.”

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.

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.
