WEEKEND OMNIBUS: Don't get cheated

Jennifer Childs being a silly goose in Why I'm Scared of Dance

Friday: We at the Omnibus believe that everyone should listen to their instincts. Sure, it's not easy when it whispers something you don't want to hear, but child, it's usually right. For instance, if you have suspicions that the special someone in your life is doing you wrong, then you may want to take some time out for the Donna Andersen reading this evening. She'll be reading from her book Love Fraud: How Marriage to a Sociopath Fulfilled My Spiritual Plan, and leading a discussion about the warning signs you should look out for if you think you're being cheated. If you leave feeling like you have to dump him/her, you can lift your spirits with some retail therapy at the Mad Tea Party at Bus Stop Boutique. Saturday: And if new shoes can't put a smile on your face, then Spiral Q's Peoplehood Parade & Pageant should definitely do the trick. Nothing says lovin' like a street full of colorful, monster-sized, gangly puppets, right? Ok, maybe that could be a little scary, but at least it would get your mind off things. Come on, you can't have it as bad as Jennifer Childs, who's admittedly making an ass of herself in 1812's latest production, Why I'm Scared of Dance. Read Mark Cofta's review, then go see it in the attempt to let someone else's follies make you feel better. Sunday: First things first: start the day with a stiff-ass bloody mary. That should put you out for a few hours, then you can head to the Cheyenne Marie Mize show at the Manhattan Room. She's a good ol' Kentucky gal who sings pretty songs about friends and rest — two things you could probably use right about now.
