Group git down on stage for the last two songs. They came out for an encore and killed it again! We love you M.I.A.!
Gratuitous photo of my outfit. Sorry, I'm turning into an old Asian woman.

M.I.A. House of Blues

Chicago, baby! This party was LIVE! I've heard a bunch of people dogging the HoB lately, but I have to say I have seen some AMAZING shows there, and this was one of the best! The crowd was awesome and the Cool Kids killed it as an opener. For the show M.I.A. brought the goods and pretty much rocked our faces off.

that sh!t was HOT!

New bangs for a new tattoo

well, not really, more of a coincidence. This shot is almost a week after the tattoo was done.

This photo was taken the day after.

Best trip ever!! Kenya via Amsterdam 2007 (Jessica as co-pilot)

Me and Jess at 40Theives bar in Mombassa. Can't wait to get back there!
Kavita brings style (as well as metallic spandex) to all of East Africa!

We had so many great meals on the coast! This is a shot of Taco and Kavita, best buds.

Thank you to the wonderful new friends we met in Kenya. We laughed like old friends - can't wait to do it again with you, in Chicago, Nairobi, or anywhere else in the world!

Nothing but good times

We flew from Nairobi to Mombassa for a little vacation within a vacation. We had an amazing time! the group of us did a lot of eating, sleeping, goofing off, horse laughing and chilling in general.
