When is summer ever going to arrive? I miss those extremely hot and muggy, sweating for no darn reason days. I kid, I kid. I’m a kidder. I believe in Game of Thrones: Winter is here.

Got a lot going on this weekend. Tons of music, Birdsall House anniversary, swing dancing and Hudson Valley Restaurant Week, (or weeks, it lasts until the 19th). So come on down and celebrate false teeth, awesomeness, and daylight savings time. That’s one less hour to get over your hangover, so take it easy rockin’ on Saturday night.
