halloween on both coasts
i'm just back from a week in Anaheim for a fun work conference. when i wasn't working my booth i was sunning myself at the pool, crying on rides at Disneyland, hanging with my coworkers and chilling in my hotel room. i love staying in hotels, it's good clean fun. before and after the conference i got to spend some much overdue time with a handful of close friends who live in the LA area.
i got to spend a day with my boy Deo and his group of crazy friends who i love. i consider Deo one of my bestest buddies. i went to an insane halloween party in downtown LA with Craig and Mona. their friends live in this huge commercial space and have like 15 couches and all of this kitschy decorating going on. it's mind blowing that it's not a club, it's their HOME. we danced till the morning. i made fun friends.
i got to have lunch with Ken and Erin. then Craig and Mona took me to Venice beach to see all of that craziness at sunset. man that place is electric. there's roller skaters, dancers, drummers, old men with a thousand dogs belting out folk songs at the top of their lungs. i even got to buy my monkey boy a special gift from one of the shops there. i got to hang out with some more fun LA characters back at Mona and Craigs' place. then i went to have dinner with Hamady, who i've been close friends with since 3rd grade, but hadn't spoken to in three years.
i got no break once i got back to DC. i had to teach tribal for 2 hours on tuesday night, bust my ass to get back home, don my fabulous rainbow brite costume and high tail it to the Blue Room for a porno halloween party (although rainbow brite is pure and used her wand to zap those movies they were playing on the walls, naughty and bad). yaaaaaay fun. my boy gianma was on the 1's and 2's spinning drum and bass that made everyone crazy. what a fun week! i want to do it again. again again!
here's all my pics.
below are some very short and fuzzy clips i took with my digital camera at Venice beach. (hopefully they work)
this girl was randomly dancing at a bus stop. she had on headphones. she was my hero of the day. i should have gone to her and told her that i understand and that i feel the same way. next time.
roller skater girl.
me excitedly approaching the drum circle.
in the drum circle.
