One day a week, I work from my apartment instead of the Crooked Monkey offices. These days turn into mini staycations--I get to explore parts of DC, have meetings at new restaurants, and get lost in the streets of Washington DC.

It breathes inspiration into our funny and graphic t-shirts. If you're all about DC staycations, check out KstreetKate's blog--she's about to drop some knowledge on the topic.

DC bloggers and trendsetters Ebong Eka, Kate Michael, and Pamela Sorensen have a bi-weekly webisode called "The district Dish." They feature individuals with interesting stories/businesses/charities/lives.

This week they decided to interview yours truly. I was honored to be asked to be on the show. Kate Michael writes and produces K street Kate, Pamela Sorensen writes and produces Pamelas Punch and Ebong Eka owns a men's fashion line called Mi Chiamo Eka.

Great group of people. I discussed t-shirts, the origins of Crooked Monkey, where we get inspiration and celebrities wearing our t-shirts.

Michael Wilbon was filmed that same day--so I got to meet him. He's a real real nice guy and very interesting to talk to. He's got a few more views for his edition of The District Dish than I do, so go watch my edition so we can beat him out.

I love that name. K Street Kate. K street is as close to South Beach as DC can get--Night clubs, long lines, tables, and gorgeous women.

My brother and his girlfriend went to some private inauguration function last week and ran into K street Kate. Apparently she was Miss DC in 2006. Props to the judges--usually they forget to pick good looking girls. Anyways, I'm assuming if she tried to win Miss DC 2009 she would probably fall to a respectable fourth--right behind Michelle, Malia and Sasha Obama (in that order).

Believe it or not, I didn't actually meet Kate. But after writing this post I feel like we're almost BFF.
