OMGGGG I can’t believe I haven’t gone out since Friday. I don’t know what to do with all this pent up dance fever. I almost tricked myself into going out with Matthew last night to the Bar, but I need some control.

This weekend I decided that I needed to stay in a bit more, save for taxes (seriously, I owe more to the IRS than I do to the BMW dealership). I also decided that I would stop eating junk food. Primarily cookies. Today I caved. One chocolate chip cook and two Oreos. Okay and two Girl Scout Cookies. Who can really resist those adorable little things? Not me!

I suspect by the weekend I will be going out again per usual and waking up to eat cookies for breakfast. Now if only I could magically make that IRS bill disappear, all my problems would be solved!

Teddy’s was a bore last night so we set sail to Yacht Club.  The Rosencrantz brothers rarely disappoint…. we danced forever and had our fill of champagne, what else could a girl ask for on a Friday night?

Alissa and I have decided not to go out tonight.  What will we do instead?!  I would be happy sitting here staring at my record collection (without a record player mind you) – there is no way I’m going to Bardot or H’wood.  The last few times I’ve been to either place have been traumatizing.  Why have a rope/door guy/blablabla if once inside it’s a bunch of gross people?  Pull it together and put out the trash.  

Perhaps we could go to the Burgundy room.. it was strangely fun there a few weeks ago.  Wait!  We’re not going out!!!

Okay, going to yoga/detox/acai smoothie heaven.  Then we will probably go out.

Going out in LA is sooo boring.

Posted in Los Angeles, Party by kristencoates on March 5, 2009

When did going out get so weird?  I went to Teddy’s on Friday and danced my face off with Alissa… there really wasn’t much else to do.  Saturday my boyfriend came in from NY and we went to Bardot and Hwood and were bored to death… Not that we were boring (we have fun talking about luggage and peanut butter), but the most non-fun people ever were out… not doing anything.  again.  We either had more fun at the Bar on Monday – which by the way it is incredible that that place is what stands out during my stint of “partying” (only because after 4 years you would think it would be dull) or at Yamashiro last night drinking champagne alone.  What gives LA?  Someone have a pool party already.

Going out vs Staying in

Posted in Inspiration, Los Angeles, Party by kristencoates on February 25, 2009

Alissa came over for dinner Friday and we worked on tech sheets instead of going out and this is what she said when she left my apartment:

“I love walking down franklin with a plastic bag full of leftovers while my friends drive by on their way to Teddy’s making fun of me”  

We will NEVER spend a Friday night in again for as long as we live in Los Angeles.

Friends/Links/Lovers

Posted in Fashion, Kristen Coates, Los Angeles, Party by kristencoates on February 25, 2009

So my web designer guy Austin Saylor (magical designer and magician) first made fun of me for NEVER blogging and wanting to put it up on my site.  Then he asked me for a list of friends/links/lovers that I would like to have on my “friends” section on kristencoates.com ….  here are some things I considered.

www.kitscarbo.com  which later I found out only links back to her old site.  Sad.  

www.theladytigra.com because “bass on the bottom” is still the best music video eveferererferferrr.  The site however no longer exists.

I totally thought this guy was so cute for like 5 minutes.  I still think he’s cute, sort of.  More importantly he’s funny Ben

http://www.veuve-clicquot.com/  duh.

www.hypernovamusic.com – yummy Iranian rock band, www.troubleandbass.com fun/adorable djs, danceright.net because your girl likes to party all the time and so does matt goldman.

carisreid.com – amazing adelemildred.com – amazing machineswithmagnets.com – amazing.

 

new site to launch soon.  Alissa & I are going to make dinner, drink champagne & blog….  xx
