If you're only going to be there for a couple days, see the museums as much as possible, with short breaks to eat at good restaurants like Ben's Chili Bowl (kind of far from the museums) or Two Amys (also far). Take in a movie at the Uptown one night. As of three years ago, bars were pretty much a bust. Nightlife was pretty much a bust. You could go to Georgetown and get an expensive tattoo at Jinx Proof, then drown your sorrows in greasy vegetarian Chinese food at Harmony.
Actually, if the weather isn't insanely cold, you should check out the National Zoo. Free and a great way to spend a sunny afternoon if you like walking around.
I'll be back in town from the 31st - 4th, but I am spending the majority of my time at friends' houses playing Wii and drinking six packs of Dogfish Head.
