Because the weekend's starting a little early...

8PM - Yamashiro Farmer's Market!  Can't wait to sip wine, eat tasty tacos & enjoy phenomenal LA Sunsets tonight!

Friday August 20th

1PM - Costco Run!  Need to do some massive shopping...

4PM - Haircut.  Yep.  I needs it.

9:30PM - Cashmere Mafia B's funeral themed birthday wake.  Time to make use of all my black clothes!  I was originally going to bring along some BlaVod, but as cool as it is, it tastes like cough syrup.  Have to be a little more creative with my boozy beverage addition to her party.

11:30PM - The Magician's Birthday!

2PM - Scott Pilgrim vs the World!  Yay NYU & your free screenings.

10PM - Karaoke in K-Town!  It's yet another birthday.... Asian E!  Hopefully this time our car won't be given away by the Valet. Yeah.  Read that story.

And maybe we'll find ourselves with some SituASIAN by the end of the night.
