Glittering Enchantment

Bon Voyage

BFD was awesome. Once again, being a new experience, I had no idea what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised to pay $50 for twelve hours of entertainment by a dozen different music groups. I was most happy to see Wolfmother (whose bass player is a babe) and Franz Ferdinand (who are all babes—and they're from Scotland, yay), but it was great to see Echo and the Bunnymen live. I could have done without the pseudo-goth Ally-Sheedy-lookin' HIM from Finland; although, I'll give the lead singer (the Ally Sheedy look-alike circa The Breakfast Club) props for wearing a Hedwig t-shirt.

And when I got home, I was even more pleasantly surprised when I found my parking permit in the mail!! Finally, I'm official! You'll forgive the pixelation of the pertinent information recorded on the parking permit; anonymity is key.

That was a joke.

This is it. I'm leaving this afternoon to drive down to Monterey. I'll spend Monday down there, and then we'll drive up to SJC on Tuesday morning for the flight to JFK. OMG. I can't stand it. Though I have no expectations, this is going to be a great trip.
