East Meets West

On Sunday night, I met up with 2 of my favorite NYC bloggers (whom I also consider friends), Billy and Rey....who were both in L.A. for work reasons. Their arrival could not have come at a better time, since this week was the week I was supposed to be making my annual Fall trip to NYC, but due to financial reasons, I'm not going [painful sigh!]. We met up at East-West Lounge in WeHo and after a couple drinks, walked on over to The Abbey for more drinks and laughs. Sadly, the night flew by WAY too fast, but it was great getting to see them both. Below is a pic of us at The Abbey... Thanks for such a fun time guys!!
