I Spy A Hobbitt
Like, oh my god, girlfriends, you will totally flip out when I tell you who I saw tonight. Oh. Ma. Gahd. Sit down. No, really sit down. Can you guess? I'll give you three hints:
Elijah Wood! Elijah Wood! Elijah Wood!
I saw Elijah Wood! Like, ahhhhh!
Actually, I really did see Elijah Wood. I went to the Gogol Bordello concert tonight with Caroline, Zuzka, Tess, and Brett (yes, that Brett-- the one I just broke up with).
Brett, Zuzka and I stepped outside at some point towards the end of the lame-ass opener to have a smoke. Zuzka returned in search of a vodka shot, while Brett and I remained for cig #2. About three drags in, he walked by. I looked at Brett for confirmation. Stoned and drunk (did I mention who I was there with?), I couldn't be sure if I was halucinating or what.
"Yes," Brett said, before I could get a word out of my mouth.
"Is--?"
"Yes."
I looked over Elijah Wood, who was leaning against a lamp post, having a smoke, then looked back at Brett. "I just need to be sure," I said, "that you you see--"
"A hobbitt," said Brett. "I see a hobbitt."
We spread the news to our co-horts back inside. Gogol was taking for freaking ever to get on stage. After about forty minutes of waiting, I turned to Brett. "Elijah Wood must be taking a crap or something," I said by way of explanation. But, no. Tess (or someone) spotted him about ten yards behind us. His full denim ensemble was topped by a large yellow cowboy hat, naturally, as no doubt he chose the LARGE YELLOW HAT to avoid calling attention to himself.
Well kids, and here's the shocker. I mean, I know the kid's totally flamingly gay gay gay, but, man oh man, he sure does dance funny.
Oh right, and the concert was totally great.

it wasn't a cowboy hat. it was one of those wicker ones, with a cloth band around it. for people to wear in the sun in the isle's of greece. what are those called? well, hm. in the wikipedia entry for hats, i would say it most closely resembled a panama hat.

Dude, Elijah's been dating the chick in the band that plays the drum for nearly a year.
And I would call that hat style more of a fedora, or something, except that it was made from straw.

gogol bordello talked shit about the world/inferno friendship society for having no ambition
having no ambition is good because gogol bordello just wants to be famous which is dumb
elijah wood is a hobbit and needs to go live in a forest
he shouldn't be allowed to have a real life
go live in a forest in wyoming, hobbit
