really, all i want to do on this extra chillly, blah-as-hell day is go home and flop in a heap on the floor.
and then, maybe…much later i want to snuggle down in something warm and get my HIMYM on.

sunday night i got to see the gossip for the very first time ever, live and in concert at the paradise rock club in boston. i’ve wanted to see them live forever but it’s never quite worked out, which is why this year when tickets were available, i scooped them up ASAP.
seriously? dream.come.true! the show was perfect, good weather, decent crowd (read: i was not filled with murderous rage/nobody spilled booze on the boy), ok-ish venue, we had a perfect view and beth ditto is fucking magic. MAGIC!
heavy cross:

this was a surprising, and fucking awesome cover for the first song of the encore…because, fuck yeah! encore!

and of course, my favoritest song ended the whole evening with so much rock my ears are still ringing!

i was lucky enough to have a three-day weekend this week, and oh my god did i totally NEED it like you wouldn’t believe. i know, i know, just went to mexico, shouldn’t complain…but the world finds ways to totally shit on me and god damnit i needed a break. thus, weekend of unending AWESOME.
in fact, it started early (on thursday) with a fancy outing to cuchi cuchi for tasty dinner and cocktails. the boy had never been before, and i’ve only been a handful of times so it was super exciting. also: DELICIOUS.
so we’re at the orpheum, rocking out to the yeah yeah yeahs all night long and they exit the stage.
for the first time like, EVER, there is an actually decent crowd in new england and there’s cheering and rocking out and clapping and stomping and shouting and we get our encore.
and it fucking ROCKS.
and the whole evening ends with this…

this song makes me unspeakably happy
[flv]http://www.k-l-a-s-s-y.com/pineapple/video/yyy-date2.flv[/flv]
so much fucking fun!
they don’t love you like i love you…
here’s the first video out of a whole bunch that i took during the yeah yeah yeahs concert. it was, phenomenal, seriously. in fact, the only part that could be considered, MAYBE, as a downside would have been the fact that it took place at the orpheum, which is, a complete and utter shithole with poor circulation (read: none), lousy seats, atrocious acoustics (again read: NONE) and crowded shitty aisles.
but, it was the yeah yeah yeahs, you know? and they rocked so damn hard.

so, one night in puerto vallarta aragorn and i decided to sign up for one of the vallarta adventures that we’d been eyeing pretty much since we decided to go to mexico in the first place (aside from the dolphin swimming, obviously).
thus, we signed up for rhythms of the night and got ready and headed out to nuevo vallarta to catch our boat.
it started with a cruise from nuevo vallarta across the bay of banderas to las caletas. basically, the cruise was HOLY SHIT FUCKING AWESOMETACULAR! squared. times eleventybillion. the weather was perfect, though warm, the bar was open and the views were fantastic.
when we got to las caletas, well, oppressive jungle heat and humidity plus overpowering incense totally fucked with my system and i almost went down for the evening, but there was a really awesome show with dancers and music and drums and FIRE! that was pretty much kick ass (except for the lady that puked in a hat and passed out when the show started). then we had a candle-lit dinner in the pitch-black humid as shit jungle. also: i wrecked the shit out of my ankle on one of the chairs.
it’s been a month since we left for mexico already, but less than a month since our return. i can’t believe it.
this time last month i was in beautiful, gorgeous puerto vallarta and having the most wonderful time of my life, EVER. the food was delicious, the city was fantastic, the people were friendly and the beaches were gorgeous. it was, in a word, heaven.
