Brides of March 2008

Hey Party People! I wanted to pass along information about an annual costume pub crawl that is happening this weekend in Capital Hill. It is called "Brides of March" and the concept is that you get a bunch of people together, dress as Brides, marry an inanitimate object (one year it was the Space Needle, another was the Fremont Troll) and stop by various pubs along the way!

It's hard to explain just how much fun it is. We went last year and met so many people and had a wonderful time. Go to Value Village and find a wedding dress this week and join us! If you don't want to be a Bride, you can dress as a Broom or a Bridesmaid, but it's the most fun if you dress as a Bride... with all of the trimmings!

Here is the official invite from Bride Ivan (the organizer). Please let me know if you have any questions. You are all welcome to join us on Saturday!

Girls, let's talk. I don't know about you, but after seven years of shotgun weddings and wrenching separations from betrotheds including the Hammering Man, the Space Needle, the monorail, (and let us not forget Satan), and on and on, we're feeling a little... how shall I say this delicately... unfresh. Let's be honest. The blush is off the rose, isn't it? We're just a spoiled peach. What once seemed so, so GLAmorous now just seems... taaawdry. Doesn't it darlings? We're old. Used. Diiirty. Why, we've shredded two dresses to filthy rags just dragging them along the grimy streets of the big city.

That's why it's time to refresh! Rejuvenate! And wash away those sinful stains, at the Brides of March 2008: Purity Party, which will conveniently kick off at Capitol Hill's 12th Avenue Laundry. Never content with a mere metaPHOoric washup, we're going to LITrally WASH. THOSE. STAINS.

All you need do is bring One Soiled Unmentionable. We'll toss them all together in one big washload and watch 'em spin while we sssip champagne. (And we do need a couple of dandy gents to pour for us, so boys, please check your closet for that tux!) While we're waiting, we'll discuss "the importance of saving ones virginity and practicing abstinence until marriage."

Once our drawers and souls are sparkly clean, we'll go marry that big butt plug in Cal Anderson Park, make a few stops at The Crypt and the Castle Superstore, and then find a nice gay bar to dance the night away!

Saturday, March 15, 7pm
12th Ave Laundry, 1807 12th Ave
Be prompt: the wash-load goes in at 7:30
(But shhh... it's a secret from the laundromat!)
