This last weekend was so super fun. Starting on Thursday night, Ali, Corey & I took our awesome friend Misty out for a (belated) girls night out birthday celebration. First to Blackbird, a fun new bar in SF, and then to dinner at Home, where we feasted! We also came up with like 15 new awesome ideas. Everything from new blogs (one of which has already been created, dedicated to our love of meat… two of the girls were former vegetarians!) to a new videocast documenting everything from horrific shoe choices to our new favorite place to get hand jobs. I love these girls. We seriously need a show of our own! :p

Then Friday night, I had two more birthday parties to celebrate (seriously I celebrated 5 in total all weekend!). First, my dear friend Aletha, whom I’ve known for 13 years now! Her friend Barry threw her a shindig at his cute Mission apartment & while I was there I not only got to meet some of her friends, but discovered this awesome performance by Danyl Johnson (YouTube video below). What a charmer, huh?

After spending time with Aletha & her friends, it was time that I head out to Initiative29, aka Eris Free’s top secret, but more importantly, super impressively executed (mailed invitations with laminated party access cards), birthday party at Le Club.

Everyone was dressed to the 9’s – or as someone said, the TENS! – and looked fabulous! It was my first time to Le Club, too. Very swank. The photo at the top of this post is from that party… but you should check out the rest of the album! So super fun.

Saturday started out with a wonderful brunch with Steph, followed by a leisurely stroll through the Castro. It was such gorgeous weather here all weekend! After running some errands afterwards, I decided to take the rest of the Saturday to relax at home before the festivities Saturday night. See related #pantsstatusoff tweet:

Amazing how relaxing weekends can be (when you’re not working your butt off like I usually am! :)

Saturday night we gathered at Sushi Groove South to celebrate our awesome, good friend Manlio. <3!! There I got to meet Ron’s new ladyfriend, Jessica, for the first time (she’s adorable), and sit next to Alba, who you may remember from our Wine Country Camping escapades. Love that woman.

After dinner we all headed to Bloodhound (one of our new favorite bars), where we were able to kill two birds with one stone & celebrate Rob’s bday, too… huzzah! Manlio & Robb had never met, but they conveniently have a TON of overlapping friends, which basically made it into a huge awesome party, completely by happenstance. YES!

That night can’t even be summed up in this post, but hot damn was it fun. :)

I’m going to wrap this one & do a new post to summarize Sunday. That, and I have to head off to a 6pm class called The Success Process. Should be interesting! :)

Thanks for reading all this! What’d you do this weekend?
