Edison New Jersey makes good vodka

I went to a party last night at something called Club 301, which is basically someone's apartment in an industrial building in the garment district. My friend's band According to Wendy was playing and I saw some people that I haven't seen in a while. There was a keg! I haven't been to a party with a keg since college. Ah, keg stands. At some point the keg was kicked, because UNLIKE every frat party I've ever been to, no one seemed to know that you are supposed to have 1 keg per 20 guests (there were like 60 people there). So I started drinking Coke and vodka -- vodka, which we later found out was bottled and distilled in Edison, New Jersey. That did not bode well so I went home.

I'm leaving for France next week. I'm going to miss most of Memorial Day Weekend because of it. So sad. I was invited to go out to the Hamptons that weekend. I've actually never spent the weekend in the Hamptons. I'm always happy to be going to France but I am NOT happy to be working on Memorial Day.

I saw The Da Vinci Code the day before it opened. I went to a screening put on by Eurostar. It wasn't as bad as everyone said it was. I thought it was fairly entertaining. I have an odd crush on Tom Hanks. Kind of like the crush you might have on a professor in college. At one point in the movie Audrey Tatou puts her hands on his head and his head looked so giant -- like a St Bernard or something. Anyway, it was fun. I saw literally everywhere the movie was filmed when I took my Da Vinci Code press trip back in March so that was cool. I could even tell you where the fake stuff was -- like, for instance, they did not film any of the movie in London, not even the Westminster Abbey bit. We'll all go see it together and I'll tell you all the secrets.
