errant flesh

so i got back from coachella yesterday morning. it was a loooong adventure. we started off at the filter pre-party, where the shuttle picked us up in front of the casino i stayed at 2 years ago (aww, matty).

the scene.

a typical, ridiculous LA girl.

these guys were screenprinting free t-shirts. after waiting for an hour, v and i had to go through with it and get one. we waited TWO AND A HALF hours. and the front of mine is screwed up. waiting in the insanity left me needing to pee like never before . i was in such intense pain, and almost started crying when i found out there were 3 bathrooms, total. i considered squatting in the shrubbery a few times, but it wasn't dense enough, dark enough, and there were too many people.

i tried to talk nb into buying some tussy (it didn't smell bad), but she wasn't having any of it.

the obligatory uber-hipsters.

CIMG1236

a tent and some food stalls in vip. note the headband, which were ubiquitous. do not like, do not want. i wanted to snap them like you snap a bra strap. ding! anything in there? also seen - and disliked - high-waisted mom shorts. we saw way too much inner butt cheek!

CIMG1237

this is where we could be found every night.

CIMG1238

of course there was at least one keffiyeh.

the sun sets on day one.

CIMG1315

some super shitty drama ended the night. this is the scene as me and v wait by the car after speedwalking around damn near the entire polo field. it pretty much sums up how i felt.

CIMG1328

after one last mexican feast, me and nb had a fancypants drink at the hollywood roosevelt.

seen: lohan, drunk tara reid being led by her friend, cisco and his balls, tommy lee, jessica alba, scott speedman (yum yum), cobrasnake and his troll, and various musicians who were playing.

do you like the subject? it's a phrase i came up with over the weekend to describe all the things i didn't want to be seeing that were all hanging out there.
