(Thank God) Everyday is (n't) Halloween


Checked out a halloween party at the American Embassy last night, which was basically the same experience one would have at any club on Richmond Street in Toronto ... or at a club on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton .... or at any frat house wherever English is spoken and rohypnol is available.

I went to the party with three friends: my scumbag roomate Shane, our English friend Paul and another Canadian named Grace, who works with refugees and has a serious thing for Egyptian deserts (make that desserts – thanks Shane)and digs Liquid Liquid.

Anyways, we stood in line with a bunch of hostile-dude types. Then we marched through three security checkpoints where our passports were checked and re-checked and re-re-checked. Finally, we made it through the metal detectors and then dished out LE 20 for cover. (Grace didn't have to pay, of course.)

The music all night was bad hip hop with a bit of reggaeton thrown in for kicks. Ugg. I mean, shit, I like hip hop as much as the next guy, but with the exception of some T.I., Biggie, Tupac and a few other classics, the DJ played total shit.

Still, it was fun hanging out with my hommies and making fun of drunk college kids. Sample convo:

Me: "Hey, I really like your costume...So, are you dressed up as a trashy college girl just tonight or do you just usually look like shit?"

Random college chick: "What?"

There was also loads of sexually aggressive men in attendance. It was practically a date rapist convention. Seriously, dudes were standing behind their girlfriends on the dancefloor and literally holding them by the neck. How romantic.

Oh, and I downloaded some new tunes yesterday. Here's a top 7...ok, fuck it, a top 8:

1.Siskid, Architect - Like Superpitcher and Ulrich Shnauss making out.
2.SOOOO, Self Loathing Rules (Malente Mix) - Bangs like Ricky Martin on poppers.
3.Ame, Rej (Pastaboys Mix) - Trancey techno monster.
4.Justin Timberlake, My Love (DFA Mix) - JT and DFA = OMG.
5.M. Craft, You Are the Music (Playgroup Dub) - Smooth disco a la Metro Area.
6.Rodamaal, Insomnia (Rej Remix) - Future tech.
7.Basement Jaxx, Everybody - Better than anything on the overrated Kish Kash.
8.Klaxons, Magick (Simian Mobile Disco Mix) - Not much of a Klaxxons guy, but SMD can do no wrong.

Oh, Hallowe'en, how I miss thee. I would never have known it was Hallowe'en yesterday until I signed onto msn and ALL of my ultra-hillarious Canadian friends were telling us all in "msn land" what they were dressing up as for the evening. Losers. Actually, maybe I don't miss it...especially when you I think of those unvirtuous Western females taking the opportunity to drink too much and wear revealing clothes...oh, wait..that's everyday.
Also..love your "snapping episode" at Giza. If I had a penny for everytime I felt like snapping, or rather kicking, some Jordanian hoodrat in the balls...I'd be a rich woman ;)

I totally didn't realize the SO4 Malente mix was available anywhere yet. I'm shout out of the loop. Er...
