“Dear PoPville,
Earlier today (Tuesday, 4/11) I was waiting for a train at the Eastern Market metro station. A well-dressed man around my age approached me, and after switching my hearing aid from mute, I realized he was trying to talk to me about my Ghost (band) tshirt. We chatted for a minute about the summer tour before I hopped on a train, and since then I’ve been wondering what if I had stuck around for the next train to chat with him some more. If you’re reading this, I’d love to chat some more!”

“I was going on my morning walk through Mt. Pleasant with my dog around 7:30 am (Wednesday) and passed a girl who had a beautiful smile. I had rushed out the door and was a sweaty mess, but you seemed nice and would love to get to know you. You were wearing a purple/pink outfit, and I was walking my large-ish dog and had on a yellow hat. Would love to grab a coffee or drink sometime.”

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.
