chicken wings

well i managed to survive the desert this weekend. it actually wasn't as hot as years past and we had a good time. we started off with one minor glitch when my friend realized that she had left her ticket back home, in orange county. d'oh! so she had to run back for it and met us at the polo fields where the festival was. highlights included weezer, snow patrol, rilo kiley, bloc party, the raveonettes, and of course, coldplay. i've always liked coldplay but i guess i never really had a huge urge to see them live. boy was i missing out cause they are so fun! chris martin is just adorable and they all just seem to happy to be there. very very fun. i also bought a cute t-shirt from the coachella boutique, which is a fancy name for some of their more custom made merch. and we successfully prevented sheena (aka pasty white scottish girl) from buring to a crisp with liberal doses of sunblock every hour. yeah it was a lot of lotion but so worth it not to be a lobster.

i just saw the interpreter last night and it was really excellent. the only bad thing was nicole kidman's hair. i mean, you work at the united nations for goodness sake, keep it out of your eyes! i kept thinking she was going to run into a wall or something. other than that, a must see. hardly any good movies have come out lately and it's very poo. but i do want to see the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy. love martin from the office and mos def ain't too shabby either. right- i'm out!
