Fete Accompli

Sunday - The morning was deemed "chill", and we headed over to C Level for brunch with Leo. They had an appetizer I could have eaten, but I really wasn't hungry, having scarfed so much just before going to bed. We drove over to Coronado after that - Leo and Todd had Moo-Time ice cream, and then we walked along the (extremely busy for Coronado) beach. Fine for the sandal wearing Ken and Todd, not so fun for either Leo or myself. I started getting into a bit of a funk on the walk back to the car, and it really didn't improve at all in the car. Same old same old, really. I had a drink when we got back to Justin's, and felt a little better. Lizzy wasn't going to go to the concert, so she was going to drive everyone who wouldn't fit into the taxi over to the festival. At the last minute, she decided to go, but my bad mood hadn't gone anywhere, so I volunteered to drive them over. Everyone but Lizzy and Ken went in the first cab, but they stayed for one more drink. It was hilarious watching the two of them take turns having "one more drink" and "just one little shot", but I didn't say anything. I did, however, eat a bunch of strawberries. I drove them over, then headed to Ralph's to pick up ingredients for my Avocado thing, and finally home. Jennifer, the girl that was staying with Anthony for the weekend, was home, and asked me about cutting, since she was a hair puller. We chatted about that, and our families and the like, while I made my dessert thing, and then I retired to the room for a little while. Got a text from Ken that he was at The Loft, but nothing other than that. I called, but he didn't answer, so I called Lizzy, who was with him. He called right after I got off the phone with her, and asked me to pick him up at 4:30. They saw him leave, which wasn't part of the plan, but I eventually got him home. He had some of the chicken tenders he bought, and we took a little nap. I woke up about an hour and a half later, putzed about, tried to start studying. Anthony and Jennifer were watching some TV show in the living room, so that nixed that. Around 10:30 or so, Ken kept getting texts from Leo and Todd, and I tried to wake him then, and at 11, and at 11:30. The party at 4th and B started at 11, but it went until 6, so I wasn't really worried that we were going to miss it. We met up with the boys at the hotel, except that I forgot to take an emergen-C with me. Leo, Ken and I had happy pills, and took a taxi down to the party. It was AWESOME. Gorgeous men everywhere, fantastic music, beautiful light shows. I drank a bunch of juice, but my tummy wasn't happy so I didn't get on the floor. Ken's tummy was also not happy, so we ended up in a booth overlooking the dance floor. I danced behind Ken, and we just kind of hung out. I'm glad that I didn't get on the floor, since I would have felt self-conscious about my body, and might also have made out with someone. We took a brief break in the smoking area outside, ironically to get some fresh air, and I had the chance to chat with Devin. Really really nice guy. I brought up Monster Massive, and not remembering anything, and Ken suddenly being at my side and he said "As it should be." Really really really nice guy. We tapped out of the party around 3:15 or so, and went over to CVS for a probiotic smoothie for Ken and mixers. Todd didn't know that we were rolling, and just kind of walked away when he found out. We called him, but we all have a policy about chasing people, so we just went back to the hotel after that. He came back a little after 4, and we chilled a little longer. I was in the bathroom peeing when I noticed that the little red spots on my legs had suddenly multiplied. The only reason I knew was that the old ones were the color of dried blood, while the new ones were, well, the color of new blood. This freaked me out, but no one else seemed terribly worried. We went home a little after 5, and went to bed, though neither Ken nor I could really sleep. Mostly just laid there trying to be euphoric instead of freak out about my legs.
