Friday night - I'm listening to Peaches. The rain has stopped and everything is green. It's strange to see a different color other than grey in L.A. It's a nice change. I stopped off and got an Americano from Coffee Bean on my home from work.
Last week I met with a few people from my old work to go to happy hour. I've been at my new job for 4 months now and they are still wanting to hang out once in a while which I think is really cool because I've never stayed in touch with anybody from my previous jobs. They to meet at a bar in Beverly Hills, which I agreed to go too because I felt like doing something totally different. I really don't drink and try to avoid places of wealth at all costs, but I wanted to say hi to everyone so I headed down Wilshire to Beverly Hills. I met everyone infront of the bar and Dan put our name in to get a table, but the wait was 45 minutes so we headed down to Subway and all got sandwhiches. I got to hear about all the news .... oh god trying to write this blog is so boring...honeslty... .god, I seriously can't figure out how to write these goddam things. I've been reading this guys's blog called "incidents and happy accidents" and I am so into his blog! all he really talks about is sleeping too much and riding his bike to the laundry mat and it is so interestint!! I swear to god, it's absolutely fascinating and I'm like 'oh hell I can do that' so I run home and try to make a super awesome post like that guy and I start talking about work and beverly hills - YUCK!!!!
but honestly, this guy is completely captivating and inspired me to start on my blog again. so I'm just going to babble about whatever and not try to be coherent - let's just see how that goes
now I'm listening to old B-52s, from their self-tiled album 'The B-52s' from 1979. such an amazing album! I listened to them when they were big in the late 80s with Rock Lobster, but I was 10 at the time and totally wasn't into music or understood what that was all about yet. I really love 'Dance This Mess Around' is one of my favorite songs.
I've started reading again, kinda by accident - I reached up to get something off my bookshelf a few days ago and knocked over an old book. I picked it up and remembered how much I loved that book and put it back on the shelf, but I was like 'well, why not read it again?' which goes against my golden rule of never re-reading a book I've loved because I'm afraid I won't enjoy it again and lose that magical feeling when I 1st read it. it's kind of like dating a past girlfriend again only to realize she is absolutely crazy and has terrible breath. anyway, I started reading it again and am totally in love again. the book is a collection of short stories about a guy who is either waiting for the bus / on the bus / or just got off the bus. it's titled 'Stop Requested' by Wyatt Doyle. There are a bunch of lo-fi illustrations by Stan Zappa. it's very cool but he hasn't written anything since but he did come out with a book of photography about thrift store halloween decorations which I'm going to check out next.
ok - this computer is starting to act crazy. It keeps switching the focus of the window to fucking Pluto!!!! gotta go and read more of my book - talk soon :)
