The DC blogger says she can’t get it up anymore: 

Yesterday’s wrap-up wasn’t just for the past 12 months. It was for good. I started this blog a year ago and it’s been a thoroughly lovely experiment. But I’m calling it a day. The upcoming year looks to be a very busy and exciting one for me. Also, about a month ago I said to my Significant Other, “I think I’m running out of funny. I want to go back to just observing things for the sake of observing them.” He nodded thoughtfully and said, “You just want to be able to start shopping again without having to ‘fess up.” He knows me very, very well and it’s why I’m madly in love with him. (Like Jay-Z and Jordan, I reserve the right to change my mind on a whim, especially if someone charges me too much for a veggie hotdog or unfairly tows our car and deserves public derision.)

I hope it has been half as entertaining for you to read this blog as it was for me to write it. Feel free to keep emailing me (brunchbird at yahoo dot com) and stop to say hello when you see me out on the town. And of course you’re welcome to stay and rifle through the archives. Just turn off the lights when you leave please.

Sincerely,
Brunch Bird
