October looks like it might be a busy month.

October 5 and 6

Mekong River Textiles in Silver Spring is having their open house sale starting Friday -- they have fabric, patterns, scarves, jewelry, and finished garments.
Takoma Park Street Festival on Sunday

October 12 and 13

Velocity Dance -- I've gone to this with [personal profile] zvi and it was a lot of fun. I think I might want to catch both programs this year. Anyone interested in going Friday or Sunday?
Man in the White Suit at the AFI as part of the 2013 DC Labor Film Fest. Alec Guiness invents a miracle fabric and fights the garment industry!
Kinky Boots -- to save his family's shoe factory, a young man decides to move into a new market, fetish footwear.

October 19 and 20

This is probably the weekend I can go see The Picture of Dorian Grey unless I want to catch it on Nov 2 or 3.
The Postman Always Rings Twice at 11 am on the 20th, as part of the DC Noir fest.

October 26 and 27

Craft2Wear at the Building Museum. So many gorgeous things to wear! If I haven't found a new winter coat by then, I'm going to see what is for sale or for custom order. I will need a fashion second opinion, and probably someone to hold my wallet...

October 31
Ghostbusters and The Satanic Rites of Dracula AKA Count Draucla and His Vampire Brides which a Hammer film featuring Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing, and Joanna Lumley...

Nov 1
I'm taking the day off, and plan to eat at Oyamel for their Day of the Dead menu. Who wants to join me?

In there somewhere I want to make and can some roasted tomatillo salsa and maybe some pickles

The 19th and 20th are the first weekend of the Noir Festival at the AFI; specifically THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE is on the 20th.

As far as the noir is concerned, most of the genuinely weird ones are sadly showing on the second weekend, (STREET OF CHANCE and STRANGE IMPERSONATION and REPEAT PERFORMANCE, that's just unfair) but I would definitely like to see THE POSTMAN... and THE BIG CLOCK, and maybe SORRY, WRONG NUMBER.

One on Saturday and two on Sunday, at least if we see those three. I am open to negotiation.

Wikipedia sums that one up as "A disfigured woman scientist undergoes plastic surgery and then assumes the identity of a dead blackmailer." Okay then! (Hmm. Maybe I could get to that one on Monday. I'm really curious to see it now, and it's one of their not-on-DVD showings.)

Wow, I love your month's plan. I wish I could have joined you this weekend, but my cousin's son came over from India at the last minute for a training seminar and we spent the weekend showing him the sights. I would love you join you guys for Postman on Oct. 20. I might be able to slip away on Oct 12 for White Suit and possibly Kinky Boots (both of which sound ridiculously awesome).
