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.

Take a bite out of this turkey thigh

Are you concerned you won't get your due portion of breast meat on Thanksgiving? Not to worry. The MMX crew is hooking up with Red Carpet events and KROQ's Stryker on Thanksgiving eve to throw a bash at Area. If you've never been to Area, let me tell you: The girls that come here love to show what their mommas gave them. —Alexandra Le Tellier

Still looking to satisfy more of your Thanksgiving cravings? Look no further.

Practicing absinthe



Last night, Green Door hosted an event for the exclusive debut of Kubler, the first authentic Swiss absinthe to hit the US market since it was banned in 1912. I couldn't make it, unfortunately, but I'm betting the party wasn't much of a rager. My brother and I shared a glass of the stuff when we were in Europe and we both passed out in the bar. Seriously. The folks at Fraiche in Culver City are also getting in on the Absinthe trend. Not only do they serve it, but I also hear that their bar chef Albert Trummer will host an absinthe show on New Year's Eve. Sounds like fun—provided you don't nerd out like me.—Alexandra Le Tellier



Here's what I'd like to try, but then I really would be a nerd.

Attention 'sample-size' people!



Glitterati magazine is crashing La Cita tonight for its weekly Dance Right fiesta in hopes of finding "sample-size people with a real look" for its urban cowboy fashion spread. So if you fit that criteria, you best dance your sample-size self right over there. It's hard to find fame in L.A., so every opportunity counts.—Alexandra Le Tellier
