The reading last night was fucking ROCKING. Ryka reading amazing work, thick and sacred and awesome. I did well and liked chewing over my words in a new way in a new place. Alison de la Cruz blew me away (look out SF Alison is heading north in May). And Trystan Reese sang, told stories and read some poems that made me say wow.

Wanna see what the cafe was like?

then we went off to Black Sun at the Monte Cristo the club of the uber goths who were nice and friendly (watch LA Dead for a pic of Ryka & I) and the creepy hitty on guys who made the dance floor occassionally icky. That said - we had a good time.

then we went for all night thai food and it was awesome. There was a live performer who came on and played guitar at about 3am. is this normal in LA?

More to come when i am not gaffling ryka's mac.

When I lived in LA I would regularly go to the Thai places (there were a couple on Hollywood, I think)that stayed open until 4 or 5 am, either after clubs or for the hell of it.

Good lord! Tom Yum at 4 am - what was I thinking?! How did my belly survive?

There were also Chinese and Mexican places open that late that had entertainment, but I don't recall that any of the Thai places did.

Gosh, those are things I miss about LA.

The reading rocked! I wanted to come up and say hello, but I bolted out the door in time to start my adventures with these kids:

Thanks for granting LA with your fabulousness!

i know... i feel like such a lame-ass for not saying hello because i really wanted to...
something about big crowd + other place to go overwhelmed my senses :p

oh! but i may be headed up to SF in the coming weeks. i would love to see another reading!

p.s. that reading helped me feel a bit braver about going out and reading in public.
