Got Plans? Let's chat at 1 p.m.

It's Thursday, which means we -- the Going Out Gurus, not the royal "we" -- will take your questions about all things entertainment-related at 1 p.m. Brunch restaurants, bachelorette parties, bars with "no flip-flops" dress codes, cool art gallery parties -- bring it on. You can submit questions in advance or join us live.

And this afternoon, we're hosting a Nationals pre-game happy hour at the Bullpen from 5 to 7, with free hot dogs and peanuts, $4 Starr Hill and Bud Light and maybe even a beat-the-Guru corn hole tournament. Then we'll go across the street and watch the Nats beat up on David's beloved Pirates.

Hope you can join us for both.

Oh, and one final note: During last week's chat, we gave away VIP tickets for next weekend's Ebbitt Block Party at the Old Ebbitt Grill. If you didn't win but still want to go, we've got the hookup: Enter the code GOGBLOCKPARTY when you buy tickets at ebbittblockparty.com for a $5 discount on each ticket.
