Starr Shines Bright Again\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Governor Richard Starr is doing okay and is back at work! Adrian Jax is once again our Lieutenant Governor, which means she can write bills again, I think, if I understand things correctly. Thank you, Adrian, for taking care of things while Starr was away. You can read the official press release<\/a> for the deets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pop-Up Party Popped Off\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last Sunday night, on Twitter, Scarlett invited the people of San Andreas to a pop-up water party. She texted me personally to invite me. I asked her what a \u201cwater party\u201d meant, and she said it was a \u201cparty next to the water.” I\u2019m glad I went. There was a lot of dancing happening by the canals, and I got to see some friends. It was really chill and fun to see people just hanging out. People should have random last-minute parties more often.<\/p>\n\n\n

Vapors Show\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday night, Vapors performed at Bohan, with DJ Dirky Dirk pumping up the crowd before his set. He said something about his music being made for drifting. He played a lot of songs, including the one he submitted for the confession thing, and won third place. I really enjoyed how seamless his set felt, just vibing endlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n

International Women\u2019s Day\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sunny Savannah noticed there were no events happening on Wednesday in honor of International Women’s Day, so being the girl boss she is, she put together a show in roughly half an hour. With the help of her fiance, Brodee, they called up a bunch of people and made an ad for sharing on Twitter. Soon enough, the crowd was growing at Legion Square. Of course, Sunny performed, but Jason Tanners, Lulu Moon, Copperhead, Lucas White, and Bando also performed. There was a good range of music perfect for dancing along. All the artists were amazing. It\u2019s never too late to buy a woman *cough cough*<\/em> a car out of generosity and not ask for anything in return.<\/p>\n\n\n

Dating Remy is Expensive\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Which isn\u2019t the point, but a date with Remy got DHS $135,000 at their auction dinner on Thursday night. Is that price worth the date? I think so, and so does Remy. She told me that the money is going towards the amazing work DHS does, and<\/em> she\u2019s planning a unique and cool date for the winner, which is totally priceless. Remy is a good person who deserves good things, so lucky winner or not, please treat her kindly.<\/p>\n\n\n

Someone\u2019s also going on a date but with Dinozzo for a big chunk (although only a fraction of Remy\u2019s) of cash money. There were some other things that got auctioned off, too, like producing sessions with Jason Tanners and a Tumblr Matchmaking service package. All in all, they raised $257,800 for DHS. The venue was also really neat, and DJ B Mack, Benji, and Mayumi got to entertain the audience. Thank you for supporting the DHS, everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I Went to Work\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I didn\u2019t think much of it when I showed up to work at Cockatoos. Well, the DJ set was really good, and I was just vibing behind the bar. Check out DJ XR next time you can!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wheels On The Bus\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Took us to a party. On Friday night, it was announced on Twitter that another The Bus event was happening. Hosted by DJ Spooky and his team, people from around the city parked at Del Perro Pier before getting on a bus that took them to an undisclosed location for the party. This means there was free transportation, free food and drinks, and free music all for the sweet, sweet price of free entry. DJ F0XI3, CC2x, Jason Tanners, Damien Daniels, The Winkler, and Vapors took turns performing on a balcony while everyone else was dancing on the grass below.<\/p>\n\n\n

I spoke with DJ Spooky on the phone for almost an hour. He told me about how he wanted The Bus to be something where people could experience wonderful music from local musicians, no matter how well-known they are, because \u201cit\u2019s all about people having a good time.\u201d If you\u2019re looking to have a good impromptu time, check Twitter and look for The Bus happening who knows when.<\/p>\n\n\n

Holy COW!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I got a call from Rhylee saying that there was a cow at Burgershot. After finishing up at the clothing store, my friends and I went to Burgershot, and there was, in fact, a cow! I was told that Betsy, the cow, was brought to Burgershot by a farmer, and the farmer was there to make sure Betsy was fine. There was also something about how fresh the beef at Burgershot is, but then I saw some beef on Twitter, so let\u2019s just make it clear: Just because someone has a cow outside their business, it does not make the food at another restaurant any less fresh. One business\u2019 freshness does not affect another business\u2019 freshness. They are not related.<\/p>\n\n\n

Warriors for the Whales<\/strong>…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Diving Specialist and Honorary Orca Harlow Greene will be leading the Warriors for the Whales event on Tuesday. Everyone will meet at the Tortuga Docks before joining the cleanup and dive team. If you don\u2019t have your own diving gear, they\u2019ll have them available to rent. They\u2019ll be doing it twice, so you can show up at 3PM and\/or 9PM for the fun on March 14. Maybe Harlow will share fun facts about orcas with you if you show up!<\/p>\n\n\n

The Festival of Color is happening next weekend, and it\u2019s going to be exciting!

If you know the meme from Arthur, then you should know how cool library cards are. There will be a concert on Saturday night and bumper cars on Sunday morning. Very cool! Very exciting! See you there?<\/p>\n\n\n

SA State Library Book Club<\/strong>…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Starting on the 11th of April, there\u2019s going to be a book club at the state library every second Tuesday of the month. They\u2019re reading Carve the Mark<\/em> by Veronica Roth for their first book. How exciting! If only I knew how to read, but I\u2019m definitely getting a library card so I can check out picture books.<\/p>\n\n\n
