i took a trip recently, to los angeles. i'd been to california before but only to san diego. it was quite a journey. my ride was coming from school so i waited in the airport bar for about an hour. this is decidedly the absolute best place to meet weird, awesome, fantastic people. i met a busy businessman snackin on chicken fingers and talking to his sister on his phone about their ill papa, i met a stunningly beautiful girl from austin waiting on her date to head off to a wedding, i met a man picking up his family who were visiting to celebrate his wedding that very weekend, i met a hot mom and we discussed dating and last i met a medicine man from montana who blessed me with sage while eating buttered toast.
from there, i swam in pools, soaked up a hot tub, visited universal studios where i had my first pink's hot dog and watched a kickass waterworld show. i rode the ferris wheel on santa monica pier. i dipped my toes in the pacific while in malibu, i ate so much delicious guacamole. i drank vodka in silver lake and drank mojitos in a fancy hotel room in west hollywood. i saw michael jackson's house and drank pitchers of beers at the grove. i watched mulholland drive after i drove down mulholland drive. and best of all best: i had my first in and out burger!
i loved l.a. with all my heart. i think i may have left it there.
