Friday:
 • In the time it takes most people to tie their shoes, Prep author Curtis Sittenfeld wrote a new book. Hear her read from The Man of My Dreams tonight at the Barnes & Noble on Astor Place, 7 PM.
• The Go-Gos play Nokia Theatre; you'll dance and try not to cry at how the years have treated Belinda. [Prefix]

Saturday:
 • Elizabeth Berkely like you've never seen her before: Sock Puppet Showgirls offers a night of slutty, cotton-y fun. [flavorpill]
• The New York Short Short Film Festival brings art to the ADD crowd. Four movies, and you'll still make an 8:00 dinner. [Paper]

Sunday:
 • Slap on a ribbon and head to the AIDS Walk in Central Park. No jokes, just a good cause. And maybe Madonna. [AIDS Walk]
