Ain't No Rest for the Wicked

I wish I could post a picture with this entry but I've been unbelievably lazy when it comes to uploading photos (this shouldn't come as a surprise since I do have a tendency to upload Xmas pics in the middle of May). I want to blog about my latest adventures before old age steals them from my precious treasure box of memories. Bow chicka wow ow!

July 4: America.. FUCK YEAH.
Decided to rough it in good ol' Yuma, Arizona for the weekend with Shane, Stella & Brian. Thursday night we stayed at the Sycuan Resort and buffeted it the Sycuan casino. Then, camped a night in Yuma, saw Lake Martinez and the Colorado River. Got completely shitfaced in 110 degree weather, Stella and I both lost our $7 Wal-Mart sunglasses, filled up the jukebox with $5 worth of quarters to play "Benny & The Jets", and "Don't Stop Believing" at least 3 times each, and then woke up thinking .... ok, I'm over camping. Good times!

July 12: Rockstar MAYHEM FEST!
Yeah, long story short: It was awesome. Super hot. KSE & Bullet killed it. Never go to the San Bernardino Glen Helen Pavillion/San Manuel Amphitheatre unless you have to.

July 27: Caged Animals
Shane had gotten the day off which rarely ever happens especially since I've never been able to have two "weekend" days with Shane. (Seeing as how my weekend days are Sunday and Monday). He had never been to the SD Zoo and I love the thought of squishing cute animals, so of course we had to go. I was admittedly a little sad I couldn't ride the Skyfari, but it was a great trip to the zuu. ..... get it? Buu..? Zuu? Zoo? No? Not so much? Fine.

July 31: Industry Par-tay
Esther threw an awesome glitzy Hollywood industry party for the grand opening of West Side Stages. Free booze and food, celebrity sightings, red carpet entrance, VIP area, up and coming performances, star DJ (Macy Gray)... yeah the whole nine yards. I couldn't be any prouder of her. Yeah, I got shitfaced with Stella while we stumbled around in 5 inch heels repeatedly asking "Where's Esther?!?" Other than that hot mess.. the weekend was fun since it was Shane's first time visiting LA. On Saturday, we ventured to the Valley to meetup with my sister, lunch at Topanga Mall. At night, it was dinner at Natalee Thai restaurant (HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE DINING EXPERIENCE) and then drinks at Busby's.

There are probably more things that happened in between (yup, there are.. I just remembered them), but I'm not going to write about them cuz no one really cares that much. Summer is half gone.... WOMP WOMP.
