Why don't I just tell you what I'm doing this weekend and you can join me if you like ...
Thursday:
I'll probably work out after work just so I can justify going to Cosmos Uptown and gorging myself in a 3-course meal for $12 to celebrate their 12 year anniversary. After I eat myself into a coma, I'm going to migrate south to South Charlotte for the Ballantyne aloft and wxyz bar's grand, grand opening party. And I may go check out Cosmos in Ballantyne while I'm at it for their inaugural '90s night ... and maybe even eat some more.
Friday:
Debate over which outfit I'm going to wear for entirely way too long for as much as it matters, and then show up late to meet my friends, who thankfully are probably running late, too. You know, I wish Virginia Tech offered Time Management 101 courses because I am pretty much late for life.
We'll probably start at Kashmir for the Debauchery party hosted by my homeboy Mike Palladino. We'll then mosey on over to Madisons to bid adieu to my fellow paid partier, Charlotte Observer's Paid to Party Sarah Aarthun who has taken a job with CNN in Atlanta. And then we'll, as inevitably and always, end up at the EpiCentre ... this time for ELEVATE Lifestyle Magazine's 6th anniversary party at Suite. (I write for them too, you know).
Saturday:
Leave Uptown and really going out on the town ...
... to Plaza Midwood to check out Twenty Two, the new alcoholic art gallery under Soul Gastrolounge, where you can peruse, booze and schmooze. And then to CAST to see the real Saturday Night Live ... Robot Johnson.
Sunday:
A day of rest ... yeah right. A day of rest for me would be one for which I had time to clean, do laundry and grocery shop.
And if those chores are completed I will pay myself an allowance and permit myself to go to Elizabeth for some chili eating and football watching at Jackalope Jack's for Good Eats Charlotte and the Go Social Club Chili Cook-Off and former Panthers Dan Morgan tailgate block party. I myself never pass up an opportunity to eat ... or play games — there will be some competitive skeeball cooking up as well. Last time I went to Jack's, I won the top score on Wordster (yes, that is further evidence that I am a dork in my real life) and when I tried to insert "A bunch of bitches" as our team name it beeped at me and told me "Bad Word."
By the way, since when has technology gotten so smart? And smart ass to boot. I don’t know about you, but I am tired of Facebook telling me who I should poke, whose walls I should write on ... and suggesting I be friends with my ex. And since when has spam infiltrated blog comments? I keep getting comments on here about UGG boots on sale. I wrote them and told them since they are using me for free advertisement they need to send me a pair.
Side note: Will the guys who wrote me the following e-mails please not take this blog as an opportunity to stalk me. I roll deep.
Hi Brittney,
I spent the first 35 years of my life in NYC, and 18 in South Florida. So, I KNOW hot women. I saw you at a Charlotte Knights game 2 years ago, you are definitely NY/South Beach worthy. You're gorgeous. So my question is, why do you photograph so horribly? Your face looks all bony and sharp edged. In person you were so much hotter. You need a better photographer!
Cheers,
John
Or how about this one ...
Dear Brittney.....
I am a great admirer of YOU and the 3 Wide Life program - With your talent, poise and beauty you definitely add a uniquely wonderful dimension to the show.... I have an extremely special request to ask you: In reference to 3 Wide Life Episode # 503 (Greenville Pickens) I took special notice of a rather inticing and lovely pair of Black High Heel Pumps worn by you - I am an AVID and extreme high heel enthusiast and collector and would be most honored to add those EXACT/SPECIFIC shoes to my Personal collection...I would gladly compensate whatever the cost would be to replace the heels in your personal wardrobe as well.ANY understanding and consideration that you can extend to me regarding this unique and special request would be forever appreciated...THANK YOU for your attention!!!!
Best Wishes,
Tom
