happy new year!

might be moving to tumblr soon...but i dont really want to leave this page either...its been 9 years...hard to let something like that go...

since the inception of the blog, not much of it has been thoughts, but more or less facts, actions taken. so i may start expressing more here, especially since tumblr is more of a reblog, take other works type of outlet.

just watched marley and me the other day...and perhaps blogger is more of an editorial while tumblr is more journalistic...maybe...haha...this made more sense in my head the other day.

either way, happy 2010...the 00's were a good decade...lots of ups and downs...great beginning and great end...and hopefully more greatness to come. see you all soon!

xx

8/12: they came down to oc this time...took them to taco loco in laguna beach...very "california," right? then downtown santa ana (memphis and proof). saw the craziest car accident! this guy speed down the road and rams into the parked car (the one infront of john's btw), pauses for a few minutes, backs up and rams into another parked car, then storms back down the street he came on...busts a U...and speeds back down the opposite side of the street on a flat tire. WOW...there must have been 30 people out there screaming out the license plate number...luckily no one was hurt...what a story...
8/14: sugi's bday. nics martini lounge in bev hills. is what it is.
8/15: block for lunch at tututango...watched district 9 (loved the doc style, journalistic pov)...then headed to christines pool for erics goodbye party...went home early to relax. watched the rocker (mm...teddy geiger...i remember you!)
8/16: depeche mode at the hollywood bowl. ate at the cat & fiddle beforehand and got a bacon wrapped hot dog from a street vendor after. good times. not top 20.
8/19: boiling crab. 2.5 hours wait. 3 lbs of shrimp. 1 lbs of clams. 1 basket of fried catfish & cajun fried. worth it? maybe, maybe not.

i feel like im using periods more. especially when i start typing things like "a.m.a.z.i.n.g"...lol. i guess its gets the point across. more definitive. yes.

this weekend is FREE! what to do, what to do?
