Gion Matsuri, Here I Come!

One of the many floats that Gion Matsuri is famous for, softly lit by paper lanters during Yoiyama.

I'm on my way to Kyoto's Gion Matsuri, on of Japan's biggest festivals. Expect me to be MIA until Monday (^o^)< Washoi! If you've never heard of this ancient, month long party in Japan's traditional culture capital, check these out!

Gion Matsuri:Yoiyama
Gion Matsuri: Yamahoko Junko

Don't worry! I haven't quite finished expounding the finer points of anime, as exhibited by BLEACH. All previously scheduled programming will resume with when I return! Have a great Ocean Day Weekend, everyone (^-^)v. Let us join Japan in expressing " our gratitude for the favor of the sea," and the Happy Monday System, too!

Barfugly McWeaseltoes

Wow. I realy didn't think it was possible for me to hate Sienna Miller any more, I took the anger management classes, I've done the deep breathing exercises, and I've told myself that we must coexist in this world and that she is a valuable human being.

And then I see a photo of her and all I want to do is shout obscenities and pelt her with old fish heads. I have no idea what she is doing in these photos, except maybe seeing just how repulsive she can make herself. To be honest she hasn't really done anything in these pictures to warrant my hatred...

Except maybe looking like a crackwhore version of the girl on the Wendy's fast food wrappers, or a man in drag, or the human version of a weasel...I could go on...

Maybe it's time for me to head back to the clinic, but not before I post one more photo, I have no idea what she has to laugh about, someone probably called her BARFUGLY and she thought it meant "adorable"



I just vomited in my mouth.

ESPY'S party @ The Roosevelt

In the normal world last night was a Tuesday night, but in Hollywood it was another excuse for a lavish party, for...um...something to do with sports and vodka... There were several ESPY's parties held across Hollywood including the playboy mansion and notorious celeb hangout the Roosevelt, which is where I ended up.

Some highlights included:

Bai Ling dancing like she was having a psychotic episode.

Nick Lachey having 3 huge men shield him from people looking at him.

Seeing Vanessa Minnillo, who is quite possibly one of the most beautiful people i have ever seen.

Matthew Mcconaughey arriving in old Levis and a tee shirt because, well, he can.

Tracey Morgan trying to hit on every girl there, literally.

Haley Joel Osment all grown up.

Vanessa Minnillo eventually getting totally wasted and falling all over the dancefloor, including nearly spilling her drink on me.

DJ AM's amazingly eclectic set, took me a while to get into it but the more I think about it I really like his style.

Busta Rhymes CRAZZZY performance

Finally hearing Justin Timberlake's new single "Sexyback" which I am now playing on loop, song of the summer for sure.

My sources from the other parties tell me that the playboy mansion was the expected debauchery with celebs such as...um..Nick and Aaron Carter taking part.

But the true celeb hotspot of the night, which came as a bit of a surprise to everyone, was the new Karaoke night at Guy's which drew in Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan, Mary Kate Olsen and Kirsten Dunst...well, I know where I'll be next Tuesday..

Finally I couldn't post without the requisite red..actually blue... carpet pic of me and my friend Omid with our free gift bags of sports magazines (which i don't like) and vodka (which I don't like) Well, I guess it's the thought that counts, and the bags are a nice colour blue!

Yes, I am wearing my requisite cap, but luckily not my aged Rolling Stones shirt.

Oh, and the gansgtafied peace pose seemed like a good idea at the time!
