Pinches Tacos & Chateau Marmont

While Sista' Sarah & I were in LA Fri night to see 100 Monkeys...yet again...we also kept our eyes wide open for Mr. Sparkly himself. Yah, I know...I'm about 99.9% sure he's not back in LA yet either. =( However, you never know when Sir Pattinson may pop around the corner. Preferably in my direction. In my quest to be near God...I mean Rob...I wanted to take a trip down memory lane. Ok, not my memory, but Robs...you know, the fated escape from the Chateau Marmont, where he'd supposedly spent the evening rendezvousing with Kristen (do I even need to put her last name???) Anyhoo, I'd (shamefully) seen a place on The Hills called Pinches Tacos, and because of my bizarre Hills fascination, I wanted to check it out. Low and behold, I come to find out (thx to google maps) that it's across the street from the...CHATEAU MARMONT! Now I'm not a Chateau Marmont virgin...I have driven past it many times. However, it never had quite the same impact prior to my knowledge of Robert Pattinson having supposedly slept & boozed there.

(If I ever make it inside one day, I wonder if they'd let me take a piece of the carpet as a souvenir?)

On Saturday, Sista' was totally up for some Mexican food considering it was noon and we hadn't eaten since our 3am pizza binge ala' Pink Dot (they'll deliver anything...pizza, wings, condoms, booze, dental floss, a banana...) It's pretty sweet. Anyhoo, we got to Pinches and ordered our "healthy/veggie friendly" food from the counter and took a seat outside.


While sitting there, thoroughly enjoying our food, we had a prime view of the Chateau Marmont's valet stand. I couldn't help but wonder out loud to Sista' what I'd do if all of a sudden Sir Sparkly himself pulled up...magically, out of thin air...


Who am I kidding, I know what I'd do. I'd choke on my chicken quesadilla...that or faint. OR... maybe some weird seizurey combo of the two. But then I thought, that might not be such a bad thing. Maybe Rob would run across the street at vampire speed and do the hymlic maneuver, or even better... mouth to mouth. OR maybe some lusty combo of the two. Hey...I'm game.

Then I came back to reality and realized he's probably not in town. It's not like the poor guy can sneak in and out of LAX unnoticed. Well..most of the time. In the meantime, I think I'm going to start a fund....a "Drinks at the Chateau Marmont Fund"...Next time, I'll be prepared.

"I may not be where you want me, but I'm here Jen, I'm here. xo"
