happy Thanksgiving...

Coming out of my food and wine coma today, I wanted to wish everyone reading a Happy Thanksgiving!

Unfortunately, I couldn't get back down to the beaches of Florida to be with my family, but the weather was splendid here in Brooklyn and I managed to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner (sans meat) without fucking anything up or burning down my house....

On that note, 2008 is coming to a close soon and I look forward to what next year will have in store for us (Obama!). And even more so, I look forward to a trip to Sweden with my younger brother Clark, then hopefully back down to France to see my beautiful friends...

Dear Santa...

I've been a good girl this year (more or less).
Can you please stuff these in my stocking come Christmas morning?
love,

"Element Skateboards has just partnered up with Switzerland's, The Imaginary Foundation to create a visually stunning, short stack of boards. The Imaginary Foundation was started in Geneva in 1973 as an experimental "think-tank" for new ideas. Invented by a posse of "free thinkers," the foundation went on to implement research that covered all creative endeavors. It's goal for each project was to "eliminate set conventions in favor of the humorous, the abstract and the visionary." How beautifully amazing is that? It sort of reminds me of a type of Willy Wonka ideology.
Be sure to go The Imaginary Foundation site for more on this unique program. It might inspire you to step outside your point of view just long enough to see something different."

That's right, kids. It's that time again...

Before your Thanksgiving Tryptophan coma and pumpkin pie purging, come give thanks for cheap booze, good music, sweet dance moves and anything else your bulging little heart desires....
I'll be providing the love explosions in your ears and Action Bastard!!! will be providing your liquid courage. All night lonnnnnnng (all night)!

And if you're lucky, I'll be pumping some of that 69 Boyz' Christmas Album...

see your pretty faces there.

Hello Brain, It's Me Goldie...

Last night was completely worth today's brutal, day-long hangover. Adrian Blanca's art opening at the eS showroom was super rad. Great art, good crowd, free booze. Def nothing to complain about there... It is still up and will be for a few weeks. You can go see it at 29 Greene Street (btwn Canal and Grand).

Then it was off to the Red Bull / Oakley Snowboarding party (Thanks, Craig!). WHAT, a shitshow. Open bar ALL night. Free swag (which I lost... typical). Fun friends. It was epic. Another one of those infamous New York City adventures...

Off again to dance with the night...

These are a few of my FAVorite things...

You know I'll be there...

Will you???

The champagne has been popped....with no bodily injuries!

We did it!
We fucking did it!!!

I am still speechless (and it's not the vodka doing it, for once)...
Will get back to you with my thoughts, feelings, celebratory words, Stoli rambles, et cetera, when I can actually digest what just happened.... I'm beyond elated.

...Finally! We deserve it!

xoxo.

ONE day and counting down....

TOMORROW! I can't believe it's happening tomorrow!
I have been waiting 4 fucking years for tomorrow....
8 was bad enough.
12 is inexcusable...

GO VOTE!
(for obama, please)

xoxo.
