beautiful and dirty rich

I love my life and I love my friends. LA part duex is amazing as ever. This time I'm with the notorious Gail and we have Libby all to ourselves!!

Gail and I both got in Thursday night and we stayed up until 4:30am east coast time gabbing away with Libby over cheese and wine. It was fabulous.

Friday we got up and went to brunch with two bottles of champagne in hand to benice... "be nice" or "benice" as in Venice but noone can be sure. Had their legendary banana batter pancakes and drank mimosas. Heart my life.

Headed to Marina del Ray for some serene beach with more champagne and soaked in blissful California sun. This very sun makes Gail want to say FML because she's a little strawberry on her front side.

I, apparently, am immune to the sun and thanks to factor 15 I still look like Casper the friendly ghost. F-M-L. We headed to a Venice Beach bar called Cabo and took advantage of happy hour 2-for-1 drinks.

[Insert team trip to Trader Joes that had us laughing so hard we were crying.]

The best thing ever happened next. Our very own Lady Gaga dance party in Libby's apartment. YES!!! We introduced Libby to many a Lady Gaga songs! Oh and homemade fresh berry mojitos were involved. YUM!  This ended abruptly when the neighbor downstairs rang the doorbell and told us it sounded like we were coming through his roof.  You better believe it, sir.

We made it to dinner by 10pm for Spanish tapas and wine. It was delish despite the wait for a table.  It was BYOB so we had our cheap Trader Joe's wine in tow and it was perfect. Cherry cherry, YUM YUM.

Thanks  to such late bedtime on Thursday, the sun and red wine we all passed out at midnight!  Roll on day two.  We're going for brunch (clearly) and then our daily adventure will begin with a hike.  Stay tuned!

LOVE MY LIFE!
