It’s been a skimpy week in terms of blogging, what with our production cycle being at its very peek during this–oh-the-terror–“production week.” For that I apologize. I’ve been busy hunting for phantom commas, along with all the other unglamorous schtuff that’s necessary when putting together a magazine. But I have vowed to pull myself away so that a fit of rollicking summer fun can be enjoyed tonight.
Lookit! A Bluegrass BBQ–with copious amounts of wine courtesy of TC Uncorked–is happening over in Golden Valley tonight. But alas, I can’t go. I’ve already committed myself (i.e., laid down the steep registration fee) to hobbling down Hennepin Avenue during the Torchlight 5K. I’m not sure why runners waste so much dough on entry fees. So that they can accumulate enough T-shirts to get them on of those tacky runner’s quilts made? Hardly. (Hint: there’s a beer party at the Dome, immediately following tonight’s race.) In any case, it’s worth noting that the race opens the traditional Aquatennial Torchlight Parade.
