And I made it into the LA Times...with the hat

Include "Fashion Icon" into my ever-growing list of titles

I made the LA Times Web Scout Blog for my phenomenal fashion sense at SXSW



Sorry Chara, you can't argue with a major news outlet like that.

So i didn't think i could top last night

Last night i was picked up from rockclimbing with a bunch of geeks by a party RV loaded with drinks and nachos and we cruised around Austin all night, ending up in an enchanted forest where i saw a really cool band and got the coolest hat ever. it was an amazing evening and set the bar pretty high for SXSW.

i wasn't expecting to top that, but check out who i ran into tonight




Thats right, the man himself, Neil Patrick Harris. Saw him and Kal Penn in a hotel and then went and saw their new film Harold and Kumar escape from Guantanamo Bay. Freaking hilarious.

Then went to a wine party with Gary V. Good times.

How convenient

My hotel has a radio with an iPod dock. That's nice. Its not nice that they screwed up my reservation but I got that fixed.

I'm in Austin

And its raining. That blows. And I'm stupid for leaving my light rain coat at home. But hopefully the weather will get better and sxsw will be fun.

Here is what I know

Part 2 of this saga

So we waited on the side of the road to get in. When they opened it up we went to start the truck to go and....nothing.  Dead battery. And no one stopped to help us. You know they all had jumper cables too. Now we wait some more for AAA. More good times.

Hurry up to wait

So we get up at the crack of dawn to get to the big swapmery early only to have them tell us they aren't opening til 8. Nice. So now there is a crazy line of cars parked on the road waiting to get in.  Great idea guys.
