that's what you get for waking up in vegas

short recap before i shower & get into bed for some much-needed slumber.

monday: after our aquarium adventure, s, j, and i went to fat matt's rib shack, where i ordered a half-rack of ribs, baked beans, potato salad, and a soda. SOOOO YUM. the ribs were perfectly smothered in bbq sauce and the meat literally slides off the bone. i ate myself into oblivion there.

tuesday: hung out with adrienne and her dogs for awhile, then headed over to eclipse di luna for tapas. ate everything in sight (steak skewers, moz & tomato, potatoes, calamari, ribs, etc, etc.). so full, went shopping with s afterwards and bought some things on sale.

wednesday: warped tour atl (#3 this year). tinsley comes by to pick me up, we go to the scariest subway everrr just to get adam his sandwich. free parking, wandering around, trying to find adam and the guest list.... did end up getting in and figuring out the guest list location later (though that wasn't without its own challenges, i.e. venue workers being sadly misinformed and stupid). after a rather fruitless search for jac vanek, wait in line to talk to errrm someone. awkward pantomiming conversations. genius (not really). finally got my glamour kills 11:11AM tee... so excited. look for photos later. didn't end up watching any bands except jack's. tense backstage moments with ryan key (showdown: who will get on stage first). elbowing danny audition during jack's set (oops). extended stage time. saying goodbyes.

ETA: i forgot all about waffle house! omg i had smothered hash browns. omgomgomgomg gluttony.

thursday: little did i know, this would be the longest day EVER. wake up for brunch at the flying biscuit cafe where i (again- surprise!) nearly ate myself to death. i had the egg-spectacular or egg-stravaganza (my memory fails) which consisted of eggs, potatoes, biscuit, 3 pieces of delish bacon, 1 sausage patty, whole wheat french toast & raspberry stuff drizzled on top). coke museum (breather). i hate animals especially when they touch you and you tell them you don't like them. dessert at chocolate pink cafe- key lime pie and chocolate cake. "i need to finish my coffee."

actually, i think my ridiculous flight home deserves its own entry. plus i'm tired. xo

ps. i believe s's roommate, b, was looking for her five seconds of internet fame. there you go ;)
