Weather:  Alright, it’s still April so all this watery stuff falling from the sky and the 50-60 degree temperatures all weekend are still somewhat acceptable…maybe. Those May flowers better be epic.

Awesome events you can attend this weekend: The Famous Maggie Rose will be at 9:30 on Saturday night; Head over to Georgetown for DC’s favorite French Market; If the rain holds off for a while, enjoy a picnic in the park at the National Cathedral Grounds; Ocelot Brewing is having a party in celebration of their 1 year anniversary; Check out the interactive architectural installment “Raise/Raze” in Dupont. 

#WATCH

So here’s the deal: at the end of every month we’re going to give you our unsolicited commentary on what happened during said month. From politics and pop culture to pretty useless information, you’ll be able to find it in our Monthly Round Up. (you don’t have to tell us how creative the name is, we already know.)

Without further ado, we present to you: The month of April.
