There is madness and there is MADNESS. We were 22 people in a hummer limo, cruising the streets of LA in a three hour pre-party, stopping only to buy food and more alcohol. Not even a hummer is big enough for 22, so I carefully tried to avoid stabbing someone with my stilettos. It was a blast!
The rideWe continued to a night club and danced like maniacs. Vibrating bass, bodies rubbing against each other, sweat, Expressos hugging, kissing and declaring their love for each other in a blunt drunken honesty.
Sunday morning we checked out, most of us returned to Santa Barbara, but I stayed with Soleil, Eddie, Alvright and a cheesy Swiss dude called Emmentaler, for a few hours in Venice beach. We enjoyed sitting in the sun, eying the colorful crowd and listening to an orchestra of drums.
We got back in time to see the last quarter of Superbowl projected on the wall in Eddie's living room, with a pile of guacamole and burgers in front of us and giving a laconic head shake as soon as anyone offered us a beer. Despite the name, Superbowl has nothing to do with bowling, but it's the final in American football (which despite the name involves throwing a ball). It's a major event here in the US, much like the Eurovision in Europe. I don't know the rules, even though Turtle did some attempts to explain them to me. Apparently the orange team defeated the blue team (New Orleans Saints - Indianapolis Colts, the score was 31-17).
