Finally. After what has been weeks apart, BFFs Adrian Fenty and Michael Bloomberg will once again be together.

Today the New York City mayor is paying a visit to our fair city, stopping in to see Fenty’s new bullpen (which was modeled on one developed by Bloomberg) and to visit with the D.C. Council. Fenty traveled north a couple times last year, taking both aides and council members up to have Bloomberg tell them how best to take over a public school system and tackle other pressing urban issues. Bloomberg’s visit kicks off at 1 p.m.

Good excuse, Mayor Bloomberg. We know you’re just down here because your city stinks.
