RON SWARNER: SO FRESH >>>

Ouch. My brain hurts. After overcoming a serious battle with the bug circulating through the South Sound then consuming copious amounts of alcohol last night, my body is thanking me with a throbbing headache and 40-proof, Jamesons-scented sweat. Despite the migraine and my new “eau de hobo” fragrance, I have no regrets. Tacoma showed me a good time last night.

I’d like nothing more than to enrapture you with tales of late-night rambles through Tacoma â€" TwoKoi Japanese Restaurant, Tacoma Art Museum, Dirty Knockers last show and "Fresh Air" at The Robert Daniel Gallery. But the truth is, I'm tired, spent, and watching the first season of Kids in the Hall on DVD. Man, that was a funny show.

Here are a few photos from last night's adventures. I've posted them all on our Photo Hot Spot.

Special thanks to Jessie Jossy for snapping the photos at The Robert Daniel Gallery.
