Side Effects, Part 2 - The Itchy & Scratchy Show in LA

[thepnutgallery]

Saturday June 14– Got up, showered off...noticed a couple pink spots along my arms...having had a warning that I might develop a small rash, and I'd just gotten out of the shower, I didn't worry about it much. Packed up, waited for Ken to pack up, and we eventually headed out. When we got there, the boys were still at a party, and Ken and I tried to hook up my computer to the printer, only to be confounded by a lack of software, and an inability to connect to their interwebs to snag some. We laid down until they came home, then walked over to a cafe for lunch. I almost didn't get anything, but they had a “signature” veggie-burger, and I got that. It was okay. Sat chatting with them for a long time after that, and I had a cocktail, but that was about it. Mike is going through bankruptcy right now, and I felt bad that I wasn't able to give him more advice. The boys hadn't eaten at lunch, so they headed off for Thai food, and Ken and I got ready for the party. It was okay. More sparsely populated than I was expecting, and at 10:30, some horrible pop-tart took the stage. Ugh. There were great aerialists, though, including one fucking hot guy and a badass little blond girl. Saw Larry & Dallas, and left around 1:30. Back home, I went to pee and freaked out a little, because my rash had spread over most of my body – giant blotches all over my legs, arms, chest, and apparently even my face. Laid down to sleep, and resisted the urge not to scratch.
