The higlight of my weekend was going to a bbq in Venice with JD. His friend helped produce a documentary - http://playingforchange.com - about a bunch of street musicians from around the world playing the same song to promote world peace. A group of them were in town b/c they are promoting the project in a few cities (Austin, LA, San Fran, Seattle, NYC). So, we were in this great backyard with those white twinkly lights that I love and a giant lemon tree, a firepit, and 3 adorable dogs running around. There was an old man from New Orleans "grandpa" who played the harmonica, a couple of guys from Argentina who played bongos and guitar, a girl from Israel who sang, a guy from Congo and a guy from Jamaica who could sing and play guitar. They just jammed around the firepit and it was amazing. A couple of rounds of Hotel California were my favorite just becase it seemed very sweet and obvious in the best way. Also - they had catered in from Baby Blues, which has pickled okra (my absolute favorite) and that great cornbread with the visible yellow kernels.
Also, I chipped a tooth today biting down on my fork at lunch (ouch!). It didn't look bad, but I went into my dentist - Dr. Romano in Brentwood - to file it down so it wouldn't drive me crazy. AND they didn't charge me anything b/c I was so "entertaining." Isn't that great? I think it was a compliment since I mainly talk to them about my crazy dating life. Hey - one man's trash, right?
Also, I have worn my black Uggs probably 4 out of the last 7 days. I have a serious problem. I love them.
This is my account of moving from Chicago to LA. The primary audience is my parents, so I have self-edited these experiences as needed.
