818’s cat Belle was tolerating me this morning, but not really loving it.
I had to be back in San Diego to take some pictures of the crowds at Tivoli and then Mike and I dragged Tom to the game. If you look closely you can see a band-aid on his head. He told me that he was running stairs trying to stay in shape and ate shit and really fucked up his face. I told him that we needed a better story than that so we decided to tell people that he tripped over a midget while running. The Padres don’t really ever fill Petco Park and it’s sad because it’s such a cool venue. You can literally buy a $5 ticket and run around and bar hop inside the park.
Tommy was part of a wig pub crawl in Hillcrest so I took a cab up there to check it out. I felt totally out of place without a wig (you know how seriously I take costume/theme parties) so he gave me his little pink and blue extension thingys.
Heat Meiser with David Bowie/Lita Ford
Everyone was wigging out and switching wigs.
Lex, Jamie and Jennki Jen. (At Gossip Grill…you know what? That place is filled with grumpy lesbians! I was getting the stink-eye from a bunch of them. Sheesh relax I wasn’t checking out your fucking girlfriend.)
Well… there he goes again with the faces. It’s been a while. On our way to Mo’s.
I love this one! Nice pubes.
I am sure I was trying to be artsy, but kind of got lost in translation. It’s probably a good idea that I went home right after that.
Lastly, this is interesting… when I clicked on the link above for Mo’s I read/heard about this: 7-11 is sponsoring a road trip this summer! I would kill to do something like this…. if you ever hear of anything fun and ridiculous to do, email me at once! I got nothing but time and adventurous spirit!
My friend Jason asked me to dog sit Diego while he went out of town on business and of couse, I obliged. Diego is a half Chihuahua/Daschund mix. He is what you call a “People Dog” and I am what you call a “Dog Person” so it was a perfect match! I had big plans to dress him up in all these hats and costumes and do things to him… tweeting all the time so Jason can see how much fun we were having, but I gotta tell ya, Diego is not one who likes things on his head. Not one bit.
He’s pretty damn cute though
He loves to lay in the sunbeam.
And I think what might be going through is head during this video is something like this: “Ooooh I love the light even though it is so bad for me, can’t look away, just keep blinking to make sun not hurt” Or some variation of “Yeah I am a total dumbass and I know this is blinding me, but it feels so good.”
Apparently during the time that I went to the gym this morning Diego cried and barked and the landlord called me asking if I had a new dog. I was meeting my friend Jeff for dinner so I dropped Diego off at Joe and Vanessa’s so he could play with Kali and hopefully she would keep him company.
Sausage rolls (3 out of 5 stars, too much breading and they were a little greasy)
Braised lamb and beef cheek sliders with crispy fried onions and tomato chutney. (3 out of 5, nothing special)
Chips and mussels with fennel and leeks poached in creamy Chimay White with bacon foam. (I am going to go ahead and give this ZERO stars! It was served lukewarm, the mussels had no flavor and the bacon foam was more like watered down broth.)
I was waiting for Joe and Vanessa to finish at the driving range so I could stop by and retrieve Diego, but they weren’t ready so I stopped by the Tiv to see my new bff Andrea.
One thing led to another and I stopped by the Chee Chee to tell Jessica (former NA employee) about my recent departure and then Joe and Vanessa picked me up from there and FORCED me into going to The Local.
Hi Sean! (Congrats to you and Mina on the new addition to your family!)
He showed me some pics on his Blackberry and I was informed that they do not have a real camera at home and they have a newborn baby! (tragedy) Looks like they are going to be my first customers! Shit who am I kidding, I am not going to charge them for my photography … I just want a bar tab
