South By ... Better Hurry Up! And, Warm Up Those Handlebars... Plus, Why Be In A Stitch Fix?

A neat-o bike ride on March 29 will help raise money for Ataxia research.
Ataxia is a serious condition which affects the nervous system. Rides are from 6 to 50 miles. Just wear your spandex shorts to Denton, TX.

Dilemma...You want a music fix and you don't know where to go? Honestly??
You can still visit South By Southwest. There are shows going on until Sunday March 16. In case you DON'T know, it takes place in Austin, TX.
For more information on the tragedy that occurred, look here. It does contain graphic video.



Other items:

Check this out... if you love style! (It's better than being in a fix.)

I did not want to mention this event, however, in case you're dying to go... St. Patrick's day parade tomorrow! There is also a 5k!

Stay green,
Alice

Beer Brouhaha. And, Make Your Running Useful

Try all the delectable beer you want, for one day only, on April 5, 2014. I'm not sure if beer can be delectable, but the people in the pictures looked really happy!
That must be how everyone is at the Big Texas Beer Fest.

Don't forget... the Oklahoma City Marathon is a very useful marathon. Useful because it is for a good cause.

The End!

Yoga Can Be Simply Stunning And Lead With The Beads

What's better than yoga? Yoga on the bridge. All Out Trinity! (See the link!) will be hosting an event this Saturday, which includes this very feat. The potpourri of events starts at 8 a.m.

While in a Trinity-esque mood, why not do the Trinity River Levee Run?

Don't forget about the Dash For The Beads tomorrow (The 5k is at 10 a.m.!) A breathtaking run where you can lead with the beads.

Go, all out.
The End. Thanks, mighty fine thanks! for reading.

A Film And Music Fest. And, Skate At A Park Named For A Very Wealthy Boy

The Thin Line Film Fest, now incorporating music, is going on through Sunday. It would be in Denton, TX. I visited last year, and saw a surprising movie called Swingman.
This year, you can watch A2-B-C, (I recommend you do!). You can also hear a lady who calls herself Snow Tha Product. More on Ms. Snow.
Next:
Don't forget about the FREE ice skating rink at Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, TX. Go if you're the next Nancy Kerrigan, or just feel like a good 'ole skate.
Stay snowy.

Ideas From The Cutting Room Floor... Well, My Floor


Here are some ideas that hit the cutting room floor (i.e., did not make it into the blog!)

1. A video of me commenting on news articles, things from magazines, and the like.
REASON it was cut: Really I am a teenage mutant ninja turtle.

2. A companion blog called, South Dallas Apartment Girl. REASON it was cut: Believe it or not, it would actually be too expensive.

3. Silly Things People Complain About post. REASON: It would just be too long.

Major decorating news!!
If you are interested in interior decorating, giving a boost to your lame garden, or even storm shelters! (who isn't?) then visit this link.

Stay hungry, stay foolish, stay warm!
Alice

Thank you to all my talented interns. Your check will come in the form of a Pizza party.

Disclose Yourself.. And, Are You Sure It's The Same Trailer?

Disclosure will be at the House Of Blues in Dallas tomorrow. This is sold out, (according to the Dallas Morning News!) but if you disclose a large amount of cash, I'm sure you can still go.
I listened to a couple (yes, a whopping 2!) songs online, and the verdict from me is: the dance-y duo is very mediocre. Nothing special, except for song #2, which was "You and Me."

And, on to greener pastures:

I recently learned about this artist: you've gotta admire someone who calls her album, Same Trailer, Different Park.
More on the trailer inhabiter. She is from outside of Dallas.

Got plans for July 17? Bring your poker face to this show. Maybe it'll be gyroscope day. More here.

Stay in your trailer if it's too cold.

A Socially Acceptable Run. And, A Party You Might Want To Miss

Don't forget the run on April 17 at 6:00 p.m., called "Run Together."
It is billed as a social experiment by the organizers.

February 22 is when Jared graces us with his Epic Party. It will swoop into South Side Music Hall in Dallas.
Nothing against epic parties, but 75.00 to see Vanilla Ice and Coolio? A slight silver lining is that Rob Base will be there.

I think Jared has lost his mind.

Happy MLK day in advance.

Tennis Anyone?

The group Tennis will be in Dallas on January 16. Please bring your racquets to Club Dada. Please be ready before 9 p.m. For your info, my first impression was that Tennis sounds like Aimee Mann mixed with music from the decade of the 1950s. Just a thought.

If 80s heartthrobs are more your style, forget Tennis and see Rick Springfield (Jan 15 AND 16) at the Wyly Theater in Dallas. Begin shaking your stuff at 8 p.m. More on Rick.


The End,
Thanks for stopping by,
Alice
