We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

The Weekend of Ward

Take comfort, my friend, in the fact that you're not the only one who feels fat. I myself ate way too many carbohydrates at a Thanksgiving potluck hosted by Meghan (you may know her as the Derby Dolls' very own Judy Gloom).

We all then ventured to the Cha Cha Lounge for some post-tryptophan cocktails,

Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â�Ã�Â
where two chicks dressed as pilgrims got drunk in the photobooth. We've come a long way, America.

However, my comrades and I abandoned Cha Cha in search of pumpkin pie shots at Bigfoot Lodge. They were out. This is how we felt about that:

But Georgia made a call on my cell phone flask, and the merriment continued into the wee wee wee hours.



While the remainder of the country hit the mall on Friday, I slept like a drugged walrus. The sleep served me well, as Saturday night was utter roller disco madness at World on Wheels, as we gathered for the aforementioned Derby Doll Meghan's birthday. Egyptian Lover spun funktastic electro, and people generally fell down a lot.

There's a bar upstairs from World on Wheels which has wickedly awful highly entertaining karaoke (above), beers that cost exactly $4.06 and a range of liquor to provide the fortitude one needs to rollerskate fearlessly. Which we did.

Sunday involved the discovery of a few new bruises and a nice long hike into Griffith Park, which I highly recommend during these frenetic and caloric holiday times.Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â�Ã� A graffiti muralist recently painted a draining ditch/skate pipe at the end of Bronson Canyon, and I'd been meaning to take a photographic evidence for you all. As if the Griffith Park wildlife isn't dangerous enough—now we have to deal with sleeping dragons.Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â�Ã�Â

The one thing I didn't manage to accomplish this weekend: Grocery shopping.

(Yes, this is actualy my fridge, and yes, it only contains coffee creamer, pickles, a lemon and one beer. It's embarrassing.)

Okay, Happy Official Holiday Season, folks, and have a lovely week!

Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â��Ã�Â�Ã�Â

High Five,
