On Friday afternoon I met up with Emma for a coffee! It had been 6 years since I'd last seen her upstate in 2012!
emma
Bye, guys! Thanks for having us! Hope to see you again soon!
emma
Before we left that afternoon, we wrangled everyone into the door frame so we could...
emma
...take a group picture with the auto timer! Perfect!
emma
And because everyone knows that Emma and Lorelei do EVERYTHING TOGETHER...here's a pic of super-preggo Em to proving that she and her husband Rob are only a couple of weeks behind Joey & Lo in the baby-making dept! (Their daughter Evie was born less than two weeks later! Two girls! Ev & El = the next Em & Lo?)
emma
On Tuesday night I went to Greenwich Village to see Em & Lo knocked up at the same time! Check out the dual-preggo action! These two do everything together. So awesome! With proud fathers-to-be Rob and Joey, respectively. Congrats, you guys!
emma
The next morning we hit the "post-wedding" breakfast, congratulated Emma and Rob (note the rhinestone-studded "Mrs. Tourtelot" shirt. Ha!)...
emma
Bridesmaids! Lorelei (the "Lo" half of the "Em & Lo"), Hannah, Becky (the third Taylor sister!) and Emma.
emma
Hahaha.
emma
They did it by the book.
emma
No cake-smashing antics here!
emma
Emma and Rob cutting the cake!
emma
Congrats, you two!
emma
Awwww.
emma
...had their first dance as hubby and wife!
emma
Standing ovation!
emma
Mr. and Mrs. Rob Tourtelot!
emma
Right around four, Emma rolled up in a fancy car! Here's she is being walked down the sandy aisle by her father!
emma
After dinner, we went back to the hotel for a cocktail hour in the lounge! Here's Hannah (Emma's sister who used to live in NYC way back in the party days of 2001) and the bride-to-be!
emma
...Rob and Emma's place (Rob not pictured here).
emma
Then later that night I met up with Rob, Emma, Nina, Lorelei and a ton of other people to head over to the Sunburnt Cow to celebrate...
emma
Later that night I met up with Emma! Who was in SF from NYC with her new fiance to attend a friend's wedding.
emma
Em & Lo
emma
Carol, Rachel, Lorelei, Emma and Nina.

On Wednesday we all met up at the Sunburnt Cow to celebrate Emma Taylor's birthday! Here's Lo (showing off some of the birthday girl's goodies) and Em.

Emma and Nina.
emma
On Friday night I met up with Nina, Joey, Lo, Emma and Allison (Lo's lil' sister) in the Lower East Side...

Emma canoodling with Terrance Travis.

And hey, no book party would be complete without a fifteen-person grand finale version of Bohemian Rhapsody.
emma
The authors on the mic!
emma
Emma gives Matt a little bellydancing back-up flava.
emma
She can write an entire chapter about proper ettiquette during analingus, but flash a titty and Emma Taylor'll still blush.
emma
Mad props to Jon Davis - he lives in the neighborhood and when we ran out of booze just past 4:30am, he saved party from drying up by busting out the number of some super-sketch Chinatown bogeda that will deliver booze and beer 24 hours a day!
emma
Jamie, Lo, Jenny, Frank, Colin, Fatty's hair and Emma.
emma
...really into karaoke. Here's Emma on Seth's shoulders.
emma
Emma (pulling her patented "drunk face") me and the Fatty in the background.

Later that night, I hung out with Em & Lo.

This skit is fucking hilarious. Em & Lo dressed up as flight attendends welcoming the audience to Anal Airways.

Lo demonstrates the optimal 90 degree angle for objects that penetrate deeper than 4" inches into the bum.
emma
Me, Sarah, Adriana and Emma.

We all know it's not really a party until my luggage gets taken out. Not wanting to disappoint the birthday crowd, it was high time for the kids to make an appearance. So while a bunch of people were outside smoking, I had Grant take my camera outside so he could capture me give Emma the special "Pressed Ham" braining. Noooice!
emma
I mean, this pic is pretty awesome and all. But just imagine how much better it would be if the Hulk fist wasn't contaminated and he could've been wearing it. Fack.
emma
Awwwwwww, best pic ever. Emily, Emma, Lorelei and Grant.
emma
Emily, Emma, Lo and Grant. (Down in the karaoke basement of Nolita Tavern).
emma
Em & Lo! (Emma's really good at hiding behind the microphone).
emma
Emma, Grant, Lorelei and myself started the night out getting our free drink on at a party celebrating the opening of Toys in Babeland's new Soho store.
emma
Em and Lo on backup.
emma
After breakfast, we went back to Ross & Jord's and did a little swimming. Emma and Kate soaked up rays...
emma
After a few aspirin and several liters of water *whew*, we hopped in the car and drove out to Ross & Jordana's house in the valley where we also met up with Emma Taylor and Lorelei Sharkey who were in LA for two days as part of their book tour.
emma
...we all went out for brunch. Emma, Joey (Lo's boyfriend who lives in LA now) and Jordana.
emma
On Friday night I went over the Blu on Avenue C to wish farewell to Em & Lo who were leaving the next morning for their eight week, cross-country tour to promote their book that had just come out.
emma
Emma, Jamye, Rachel's girlfriend, and Rachel Kramer Bussel (the fact that I remembered all three of Rachel's names should make up for forgetting her girlfriend's).
emma
Emma (and the book!) with Isabella Robertson (aka - Tookie).

Earlier in the evening before we left that Mati Hari place, Morgan, the promoter, pulled me aside and invited me to a late night party that was being thrown by P.Diddy and Ashton Kutcher (sp?)...so we rounded up some rowdies and headed uptown to Dorsia to see if we could get some pics of us coldlamping with Demi.

And here's Emma with Grant (who's doing his best impression of Emma's "drunk" face).
emma
Mmmmm....smells like burning!
emma
Emma leaned down laughing and put her hair right into a candle that was lit on the table. I was torn between putting it out (which I did) or firing up the cam and getting a pic of her aflame.
emma
Jack Wright finds himself on the business end of two-girl head-scratch.
emma
Birthday girl.
emma
Matty, Emma, Brian Chambers, Mark Bibbins (aka - The Notorious B.I.B.), Nina and me.
emma
Emma feigning sobriety while I give my best Jodeci face (which usually means that I'm drunk).
emma
Lo, Grant, Emma (pulling her patented "I'm pretty drunk" face) and me.
emma
Andrew managed to snap off over 40 pics with my cam - but it takes so long to black out all the naughty bits that I've only posted a few here.
emma
Once Emma got back out of her birthday suit, it was time for birthday doughnuts!
emma
And let's finish it all off with an artsy pic of Emma on the fancy couch in the living room! Congrats on fixing up the new place so nicely, Grizz!
emma
Even our new Chinese friend wasn't fooled by their clever subterfuge.
emma
Em & Lo doing another duet.
emma
Em & Lo teamed up to sing a duet.
emma
Mike, Emma, Tookie (showing her favorite number - Yay five!), a guy I don't know and Lo.
emma
emma
After dinner we all headed nextdoor to Winnie's for karaoke!
emma
Much like Emma was driven to tears at the last karaoke outing, Michael caused a few tears to be shed that night, yes he did.
emma
Back at the party Emma started tying one on...
emma
Matty (making the best face ever) with Emma.
emma
Brenda, Emma, Cy, and Lo.

Hey, look! It's practically the same picture that kicks off any one of these stupid goddamned diary entries of mine! L to R: Alisa, me and Emma.
emma
See!? Look at Emma: she's actually wiping a tear away. A fucking tear. Unbelievable.
emma
We arrived early (around 10ish) to ensure that we'd be able to secure the table right up front next to the karaoke machine. That way later on in the evening when you're real drunk and you want to "correct" people who aren't performing a song up to par by singing over them as loudly as you can, you'll know that they can hear you. Because hey, people love to know when they're doing something wrong. Especially at karaoke. (From L to R: Lorelei, Sean, Joey, Emma and Mary.)
emma
Grant, me, Emma.

Nerve hosted the premiere for the movie "All the Real Girls." Here's Travis and Emma at the afterparty.
emma
Not about to be upstaged by a non-employee, Alisa and Emma whipped out their boobies and repped for Nerve.
emma
And here's Em & Lo hysterically laughing after Grant opened his gift and started getting all "extra sensitive" on them
emma
Rufus dishes out some double-dong lovin'. This one's so great I supersized it.
emma
While the rest of the partygoers sipped free vodka and non-chalantly pretended they weren't trying to accidentally strike up a conversation with James Vanderbeek (who's actually really good in the movie) Emma Taylor and I got down to bidness.
emma
Rufus, Emma and AVDB.
emma
We run on instinct. (Our faces = fun-nee.)
emma
I think this photo should be called "Luckiest Girl in the Whole Wide World."
emma
Grant cuts rug with Emma.
emma
Thanks for letting me cut in on your date, guys!
emma
Some stranger (who bears a creepy resemblance to face painted on the side of the old "Tunnel of Love" amusement building in Asbury Park, NJ...look below, see?), Emma, Grant & JimJazz.
emma
Here's the real couple posing...
emma
We ended up getting stuck on the ridiculously hot subway platform for over an hour! Then, making matters worse, the subway kept stopping! It took us almost two hours just to get from Manhattan to Brooklyn.
