My favorite time of year again - hot drinks, cold nipples, and Skater of the Year party. SOTY 2009 was their 20th anniversary of the event as well - They put out this go-big vibe and the ramp and film premier were definitely awesome... but Herbst Pavillion is just super huge so the non-VIP area out front seemed pretty low energy. Everyone in the back was killing it though, this is what it's all about. Part of me feels the intimate GAMH sotys of yesteryear still hold their reign in my cold, black heart... The best thing about this time of year also is that I get to see so much family, drink/hang out all weekend, & not give a shit. Our little mob is a good one. Love you all. Sundays are for recovering, hug/friend withdrawals, and developing all the 120 film. Oh also I got hit on by a handful of 14-17yr olds. Someone get these kids some better pick up lines, STAT! Shit dudes I am old enough to be your grandma... CHILL!

 We kept getting stuck in the middle of the santa pub crawl but this dude was rad, wired their iPod up to the guitar controller, shredded some Pantera and Megadeth for us. Metal Santas rule.
