MASCHA VAN TONGEREN

So my friend B. was having a small get together on his rooftop the other day. It was really nicely done… his apartment is amazing! The rooftop was overlooking the Hudson + the Meat Packing District… I so have forgotten how it feels to live in NYC!

The good news was that my ‘wife’ was gonna tag along as well! Whoohoo! It’s always fun when she comes out with us. Trouble… but fun.

So the party was great, lots of drinks and snowboard talk… gettin’ amped for season. Then the wife got the good news: some Navy Seals would come as well. She ♥ men in uniform [so if happen to be or know a fire fighter, ups delivery man , navy seal, police man... please drop me a line! I am taking applications]

Comes 3 o’clock, we are totally  drunk ready to go home, so we are looking for a taxi. In the Meatpacking District… on a Saturday night… that was tough. Nevertheless, we were successful in securing a ride and then all of a sudden this [good looking] guy asks us where were going… he had to go to LIC and thats where we had to go as well, so we decided to share the cab [ = it's recession time... remember!]. Anyway, the guy jumps in the middle, big smile on his face and starts whispering to the wife. She’s giggling and I was kind of wondering what was being said that could be so funny… All of a sudden she starts to scream, or kind of like eeeeuw! Put that back, that is disgusting followed by a GET OUT… get out now. The dude is like no I want her to see it… so I look to the right and he’s showing his ‘little friend’. I was not impressed. It was a sad show.

We kicked him out of the car and forgot all about the sharing part, so he didn’t have to pay his half of the taxi ride. I guess that was a super creative alternative to the ‘oops I forgot my wallet’ excuse…

Mickey Avalon with the girls! should be a fun night…. earlier that day I will be attending WORDcamp.

It will be a busy Sunday, maybe I will wear my glasses, so maybe people might think I am a bit smarter than I really am…

Saturday night my buddie Brian B is hosting a FALL Rooftop Soiree, so lets pray for some good weather…

Last week my parents came to town. Yeah yeah, I know, they were just in town a couple of months ago… but this is the other set of parents. I happen to be such a lucky person who actually has TWO sets of parents. [divorce does that to kids] . Anyway. This time my dad and stepmother are here. IN MY HOUSE! All I want to say is that my love for dad has bee tested big time! I mean I am doing all I can to accommodate both in the best possible way… what can I say, I am just a wonderful daughter!

Ha!

Came Friday, I had tickets to go see Santi White [SantoGold] play @ the Fillmore in NYC and Trevor Andrew aka Trouble opened. Of course S. was coming with. I love her! She is just so much fun, never a dull moment! For some reason I didn’t care what I’d looked like / wore that night, I just wanted… no make that NEEDED a drink after putting up with the folks for two days. So drinks there were… quite a few.

Long story short:

The show was wicked. The drinks were good. I smoked way too many cigarettes. We ended up @ Santo’s Party House and I had a huge make out sesh [m.o.s.]. I went home and my face was kind of sore. I felt like a teenager and S. said that I looked ‘cute’ [aka stupid] ! Ha! She’s such a good friend hehe

It was a fun night. Should def. consider doing that more often.
