Day clubbing is the term used to describe sight-seeing all day long by the unemployed job seeking of DC because they have nothing else to do. (Perhaps this term is used elsewhere, but I've never heard it before coming here). When I've had friends in town I've joined them in day clubbing, but have stayed closer to home "running errands" when by myself. However, I decided I should take advantage of my free time and spend more time in the District, and I might as well document my adventures. On my way from the Metro to the first museum of the day I passed a square that had several food trucks parked in it and I just couldn't resist these Korean BBQ tacos.
My first stop of the day was the Daughters of the American Revolution Museum where I toured their period rooms. After looking at all these historically furnished rooms, I left wanting to decorate a house in the "Colonial Revival" style and to sew something. Then I went to the Renwick Gallery's "Something of Splendor" exhibit featuring decorative arts from the White House. Street food + free museums = perfect day clubbing activities for those on a budget (which most day clubbers are).
I ended the day by wandering around the Georgetown area for awhile then sat on a bench to read a book and eat some treats I picked up at Georgetown Cupcake.

I want to join you in your day clubbing adventures! Live it up while you can, because once your career begins everything happy in your life will be over. Just kidding. Sort of.
Lovely! Where are you living in DC? My family just sold their place in old town Alexandria and it makes me want to cry, but I still want to visit!
I'm in old town Alexandria and I love it. I would be super sad if my parents had a place here and then sold it!
Oh that is so fun!! I love that area. I know, I was so so so sad, it was right on Lee street three blocks off of King with a view of the river! Now I really need to do a visit since you and Rach are both there!
