cutest video EVER.
what are you doing tonite?
Sorry for the last minute notice, but come out to this FREE show!
parties galore!
I worked the entirety of last weekend’s 3 day holiday weekend, so this weekend I must have been making up for it because it was parties galore! I actually was invited to three on Saturday and two on Sunday… let the fun begin!
First of all, Saturday I had a feeling I’d only get to one of three, which was fine. So, around 4pm Ali & I headed over to Kristen’s house with a bag full of white wine, beer, sausages and sweets for a good ol’ fashioned BBQ. Ryan showed up a little later and I got to hang out w/ my good friends Stig & Matt, in addition to meeting some other cool new people there. It was my first time meeting Paul’s baby, and she is ADORABLE! So although the album has shots of my friends & I, it’s largely cutie baby Ella. :)
look at that cute little nose!

Buzzed & ready to party some more, we all headed to the Gold Cane in the upper Haight. There aren’t many photos of the evening past dusk, since my damn camera’s flash doesn’t work anymore, but I think Tantek (who showed up later) may have some – and I think Ryan might have a few, too. Anyway, there we had many drinks and even played a game – Quibble? Mario & John met us there, and Buzz showed up later. Pretty fun night!

Sunday *after* Misty’s party I headed to my 2nd party of the day: Matt Jalbert’s 40th! woohoo

After a pretty raucous Saturday night and already having gone to one party, I didn’t think I was going to last long at Matt’s… but it turned out to be so fun, that next thing I knew it was 8:30! Which was only a concern because I had to get to a show! :)
Ali & I had tix to see Giant Drag & Pretty Girls Make Graves @ GAMH, and it was SO GOOD!!!! I was still all dressed up from Matt’s formal cocktail bday party, which was odd since I’m usually at shows in t-shirt, jeans & converse, but hey something different I suppose! :) The show was great and overall a fabulous crescendo to an amazing weekend!
i love my beautiful girlfriends!

This was taken on Sunday at Ted & Misty’s awesome “Midwest Invades SF” Party they threw for Misty’s sister Jen & her kids who were in town. We enjoyed mimosas, bloody marys & marias, bagels, and way too many cookies & sweets! :) So fun!
The biggest treat of all though was that we got a small private “Living Room Set” by Dino of Serene Lakes & one by Hijack the Disco! We’re so lucky!!!
Both of them played some new, unreleased songs and to be able to see these incredibly talented musicians play for just us in this intimate setting… seriously? I felt so honored. I love these guys!!
There’s of course plenty of photos & video from the event:
*sigh* my friends are SO awesome!!
keeping up
Receiving daily reminders and having to only sum everything up in terms of sleep, drink and general health, I’ve found myself updating my morale-o-meter more often than this blog. So, take a look there if you wanna check out what I’ve been up to. I’ll post photographic evidence soon, too.
Happy Monday everyone!
worth watching
You Tube Clips:
- Mr. Rogers – This was way more moving than I expected it to be… watch it to the very end if you can. “In 1969 President Nixon wanted to severely cut a proposed endowment of $20 million for public broadcasting because of spending on the Vietnam War. In this incredible clip Mr. Rogers defends the endowment to the Senate and proves why he will rock the neighborhood forever.” ~ Steve, thesneeze.com.
- Cloud Cult @ the Knitting Factory – if you’re a fan, you’ll love this. It’s them playing the new song we watched them perform at the Make Out Room! There’s MP3’s posted here.
I actually heard about both you tube movies thanks to thesneeze!
If you like that Cloud Cult video, I just uploaded my short vid of them playing “Moving to Canada” from the night we saw them at the Make Out Room.
Speaking of worth watching, though – lastnight I started watching Freaks & Geeks and OMG it’s SOO GOOD!! I am in love with this show!
Here I go again…on my own

hez’s graduation bbq
Yes, I’m finally posting these photos & vids! :)
Last Sunday Hez had a BBQ to celebrate her graduating – yay! She has a rad house/deck/backyard for a BBQ, but unfortunately it was pretty rainy. Didn’t stop us from having a good time though! The party was goin on… I mean how could it not with a little Heart, Journey & Beyonce action? Oh yaaaa baby!
Look how cute Hez is with her Mom & Dad!
It was so fun to meet Hez’s parents. They’re both rockstars & you can see how Hez turned out to be such a hotty! They must be proud! I am, as the girl has worked hard to finish her degree and it must feel so good to have it done! yay Hez!
A few of us were pretty tired from my BBQ the day before (actually I think I was still drunk), but even despite that we had a great time! It helps that you’ve got a room full of people who aren’t afraid to belt out a song or two. Oh yaaa, that’s right… it’s aaall on video baby!
- Crazy on you
- Don’t stop believin’
- Crazy right now (watch out Beyonce & JayZ!)
- Crazy right now + Lyne arrives
I especially love Hez & Jojo shakin it down. That girl’s got moves! :) So fun!
View all my photos here. View Hez’s post & photos.
Congratulations, Hezzy!! xoxo
