Lately, I’ve been trying to get an earlier start to my days. This week, I successfully got up at 7AM not once but twice. Let’s not worry about when I got up the three other days… It’s hard to get up early when it’s so easy to stay out late in Philly!

Speaking of early, get an early start to your Memorial Day weekend with Marvin & Friends, a Marvin Gaye happy hour dance party celebrating the Prince of Motown on May 22nd. Expect DJ Chick Da Funkman spinning Marvin and friends on vinyl, go-go by Martha Katt, classic Marvin videos, happy hour specials, and more. Enter to win a $50 gift bar tab!
