“Dear PoPville,

Breaking from my usual work commute habit, I went to Krispy Kreme to pick up some doughnuts and then caught the red line into work. She ran to get on the same metro car as me and sat right across from me. After finally getting up the courage to ask her if she was going to or from work, my stop arrived.

And I decided to continue into work versus staying and chatting with her a bit longer. She was a medical professional (doctor or nurse) with a great smile and relaxed personality. I really wanted to ask her if she went to the local university that she was wearing a T-shirt of.

Maybe lightning can strike twice and this time I make sure to get your name and number. Here’s to hoping for a second chance meeting.

Sincerely.

Guy who wore a blue collared shirt and jeans and a backpack (and let’s not forget carrying a dozen doughnuts)”

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 Dew Drop AND Kalorama Park MCs were connected!

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
