None of us expected the turnout we got. More than 500 people courteously crowded into the Ritz-Carlton Georgetownfor the 2nd Annual Newsbabes Bash for Breast Cancer. We squeezed Ambassador Nancy Brinker and DC First Lady Michelle Fenty into Degrees for their shared remarks. We were blessed to have them along with the so many men, women and media in pink who pitched in for this year’s Race for the Cure.

Loyal viewers may have noticedOMG was not on TV this morning and for good reason. We joined Vice President Joe Biden and the creme de creme of journalism at the 66th Annual Radio & TV Correspondents Dinner. Biden performed well in my opinion wrapping up with a hilarious slideshow demonstrating what it’s like to always be #2. The crowd roared with laughter when the infamous picture of the Veep flanked by Michaele & Tareq Salahi popped up. After laughing our brains out at comedian Joe Wongand downing some darn good lobster ravioli it we headed to the BBCWorld News America Afterparty at the National Museum.

A while back I profiled Ingrid King, a local feline master teacher who did Reiki on my dear Atticus. I was so excited to see King’s new book because it’s something that as one reviewer described should be ‘A “must” for everyone who has ever loved a pet’. The story of her beautiful cat Buckley leads us through how our pets teach us to open our hearts to the world. It reveals lessons learned through the life and eventual death of a beloved friend.
