The Weekend Wrap-Up

We had a great time Friday night at Headquarters at The Rose and Crown. Thanks so much to TV, Kris, and everyone else who made the night such a blast. We met a ton of cool people (you know we're talking about you, Gavin) and even saw some old friends who we thought had dropped off the face of the earth. All in all, a fantastic night - and not one single pair of gauchos to be seen anywhere, thank goodness.

I wish I could say the same for our trip to the Town Center Mall. I think there might have been some kind of gaucho convention there yesterday, as every single rich bitch that walked by had them on, the fabric flapping around their toothpick legs like sea-rays around tubes full of chum. It was quite possibly the most disturbing thing I've seen since the resurgence of slouch socks. I actually saw one woman who not only had on the gauchos, but also had on the sequined silver backless moccasins AND the matching sequined sack purse. I think it permanently burned a hole in my retinas and, quite possibly, my very soul. Luckily, Aaron and Jon were both there to catch me as I careened towards the ground, clutching my eyes and screaming. They tried to give me mouth-to-mouth, but I refused to let them smudge my lipstick, so I lost consciousness and was clinically dead for two minutes, but I think I made the right choice because that was when the five original members of New Edition came in with matching defibrillators...but that story is for another day. Rest assured, I'm doing just fine now, and am currently being serenaded with the catchy love tune "Candy Girl".
