merest and simplest of pleasures

Just when I think my body cannot handle anymore and all I want to do is cave into my blanket all day, I decide to go for a quick trip to Vegas last minute. I don't know who I think I am sometimes but I know once school starts, my traveling days will be limited so this seemed like a fun spur of the moment thing to do. DJ Qbert has a show and I've been wanting to see what Magic is all about so here goes my one night in Sin City!

My body is unbelievably tired you have no idea. I've been meaning to keep up with the blog posts but this week was so busy, I honestly had no time or energy so I'm sorry I've been a horrible blogger this past month! However, I went to bunch of cool spots in the city such as Bourbon and Branch, a really sweet bar I happened to stop by when 620 Jones was closed that evening (I hear it has a fun taco Tuesday scene I've been wanting to check out). We stopped by Ambassador before we visited Trigger- the coolest club in the Castro and I don't know where else in the city you can find ridiculously inexpensive drinks and the music is so on point. Thursday, I finally went to Public Works after hearing so much about it. I attended a private event but the weekends are supposedly insane, so maybe I'll come another time then. I also went to Velvet Cantina in the Mission and this is a place I used to frequent a couple years back when I was all about this area. You can't beat their pitchers of flavored margaritas and the atmosphere is really fun, especially since we were looking for a chill Friday night after all our our outings this past week. Oh, and I've managed to eat a turkey sandwich for lunch every day since Monday and at this point I feel like I could seriously turn into a turkey! My absolute favorite is from Simply Sandwiches in Palo Alto so if you're in the Peninsula- GO!

Scored a VIP ticket on Saturday to Outside Lands, courtesy of my dear friend Catherine. There's something about music festivals that make me feel right at home. Especially since the weather was perfect and everything reminded me about Coachella. I attended the 2009 Outside Lands and I felt so giddy coming back all over again- such a cool vibe.

I really love The Black Keys and Muse and some of my favorite moments were roaming around tipsy and visiting the booths. The Garnier Fructis Salon had to be my highlight. My tambourine dream came true where we pretended to be rockstars, I had THE best time here. Wish I attended Sunday if I didn't have to go to Santa Rosa for my girlfriend's birthday brunch-- but then again we had an awesome time there too. Such a fun filled weekend! I love life! :)

I can't believe the best party I've been to of all time happened on a Monday night. To think I had no idea LMFAO would be there too. There's so much to say about the awesome time I had here........ One word: Marquee :)
