The biggest news out here is Carmageddon! They are closing the 405 all weekend to do some construction work on it. What kind of work, I really don't know. Which direction does the 405 run in, I don't really know either. They say that all the work will be completed so it can re-open by Monday morning otherwise they will be fined. Good luck people!
I got my head shots taken this morning. The photographer was really cool and cute. Sarah came along and did my make up (which I'm still wearing) and helped with the clothing options. I brought a bunch of shirts which after taking them out of the garment bag when I got there, realized I only brought white and blue shirts. I should have brought some other solid colored shirts but I figured, the clothes don't make the person, the person makes the clothes. (Maybe I'll believe that after my next glass of wine). Speaking of wine, Mom & Dad should be here on Monday.
I didn't get to visit Shady Pines today as I usually go there on Friday afternoons. I am going tomorrow afternoon after stand-up class which I have to do 5 minutes of stand-up about observational humor. This will be easy.
• LA drivers only use red traffic lights a suggestions
• LA people like to name drop. Even if it doesn't contribute or have anything to do with the current conversation.
• Why do people on Facebook have private conversations on public walls for people to see?
• Why does "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" have a Facebook page and Twitter account?
While in the car today I realized something....... I kind of like this Britney Spears song on the radio. I must have heard it a bunch of times before but always changed the channel immediately. So my lesson learned this week is that I'm going to listen to songs more than once before I determine if I like them or not. And while I'm doing that, I should really start doing this with people too. Not judging them and putting them into a category before I really get to know them. OK, OK! Let's be realistic now! Let me start with the song thing first and see how that works out!
I was given the advice that a good, safe way to let out frustrations is to write down your thoughts. However, I strongly suggest doing this at home, not at work. I accidentally saved my "thoughts" to a public server named, "To What My Life Has Come". After getting laid off/ fired from a job that I hated in Boston, I packed up my life for new and exciting adventures. I was bound for Los Angeles.

I wish my gaydar was better. It took me halfway through the shoot to get the inkling that the photographer is gay!
