Chi-Chi.



Just back from my trip to LA. It was okay, I guess. I can only view LA as I see it in the movies: seedy, dirty, too much traffic, and many, many artificially blonde people. I had lots of boring meetings, schmoozing and food...great food, like dinner at Asia de Cuba, a fancy place underneath the Mondrian and Chandarae (best Thai food I've ever had).
Yesterday I cased Ameoba in Hollywood. Great store, even bigger than the one on Haight. They had their own stage and PA. I found a June Brides 12" in the used section. They're the best chain around.
My hotel room was bigger than my apartment. The excess in that town exceeds anything I've ever seen on this coast. I saw no movie stars.

The worst thing ever.

On Saturday I was just telling someone that I felt very fortunate that I hadn't had to experience any deaths in quite sometime. That night when I got home, I found out that my best friend's brother had been murdered. She talked, I listened mostly. We cried together. Bird, what have you been through?

Teeni.



Teeni, who are you? I found out that strange people are coming to my page by searching google for Teeni. Except someone who is using Earthlink in North America that came to this page via Geocities.

So far.

So how am I doing on my new year resolutions? Let's see.

New Year Resolutions:
1. Stop chewing fingers when nervous.
I still do this.

2. Get furniture.
We have all the furniture we need right now, except a decent bookshelf and a bakers rack for the kitchen.

3. Save money.
I started to save money, but then I bought a car.

4. Lose weight.
I've lost about 6-7 pounds, but recently gained 2-3 back.

5. Eat less junk.
I totally eat less junk now.

6. Consume less caffeine.
I really cut the caffine. I can't even finish my weekly Pepsi.

7. Travel.
Well, I went to OC in May, going to LA next week and NY at the end of September.

8. Give more love.
I give much love.

9. Have a potluck dinner at our new apartment.
Nah, it's too small. But we did host a Kings playoff party with about 11 people and I cooked for everyone.

Not too shabby.
