Things To Do In San Diego: September 25-26, 2010

aargh. I really wanted to write a full post preview of the awesome festivals this weekend. I was supposed to tell you how Facial Hair Expert Wahl is bringing its Let it Grow Tour and mobile barbershop to the Adams Avenue Street Fair. For every guy who comes out to get a free trim (and advice), Wahl will donate a buck to Movember – a 30-day mustache-growing fest that raises money for cancer research. And I was also supposed to tell you about Astra Kelly's benefit for Becky's House tonight at Queen Bee's. But I've been offline living the life so you'll just have to take the listings and figure it all out. I should already be at the Adams Avenue Street Fair, but after my sunburn from last weekend, I'm trying to dodge the sun for a bit. I'll be there in a while.
