road log 1
Mar. 9th, 2007 09:43 amSeems like i should say sky log 1 since i did fly and not drive down here to LA - but that said there is drving now so - road log flips around curves itself for me and starts to work just fine.
LA is cool. The strangest part is how much it reminds me of Phoenix. The best part of how performative all of the buildings are. With architecture, with paint, with neon, the buildings want to be stars too.
It jumpstarts my inner five year seeing places that are "famous." So far all of my star sightings are of places and buildings. Which makes sense both for me and LA. Though

saw Forest Whittaker in the same airport gate as the one I arrived in 20 minutes before I got there.
Flying south out of SF was amazing. I could see my house thanks to the proximity of Stern Grove landmark, and the i saw the pacifica pier. Quickly though even the water changed to warm southern ocean instead of the darker and greyer blues of up north and so my landmarks were lost.
I caught my breath flying into LA - seeing the aquaduct and thinking - this is where my friends are from (punk rock drunk pals). And again with a catch on seeing the hollywood sign.

is the most fabulous host and seeing her at the airport what so SQUEEE. I am delivering hugs btw - so if anyone needs to place an order - let me know. she took me to west hollywood and we got to do some exploring. biggest discovery - that whisky that i am always going on and on about. the black whisky from scotland that they don't make anymore and is super rare. that whisky that i have become fucking obsessed over? there's a bottle sitting on top of her fridge. HOLY FUCK! YAY! so last night i had my first sip in quite a while. i am teh happy.
i am excited for today and for tonights reading.
i am developing a little crush on la.
