Distraction is the best medicine

this weekend was oddly perfect.
it was mellow.
I felt as if Bianca and I just roamed everywhere.
Anytime we felt as though we had to be somewhere, we just blew it off to go do something else. It was nice.
Epic weekend kicked off with watching the dodgers game at a sportsbar friday night and myself getting unnecessarily inebriated and stumbling back to her house.
Saturday morning I met Ryan for coffee although neither of us had coffee, I had a smoothie and chatted a while before saying our brief goodbye's to one another.
Bianca and I then decided not to go to the pool party at the standard downtown and drove to sunset junction instead in search of mexican food and stumbled upon El Conquistador right by Good. (Enchiladas rancheras and b got potato tacos)
It was pretty much the most epic restaurant/meal either of us had in a while.
Overall win from the menu to decor. New favorite place.
We then stumbled into a video store that's closing up shop and walked around the porn section, inappropriately pointing and giggling about the photography and facial expressions on the cover.
I (sorta) hope we didn't make the 6 middle-aged men around us uncomfortable.
Then as we returned to her house, we decided no to go to the monthly warehouse party that some of our friends attend and to go see a movie at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery instead. Good choice. "To Catch a Theif" is a classic and I'm glad I saw it. 3 bottles of wine later, we stumbled home.
Sunday was a productive day for me chores-wise but then returned to Bianca's for some dinner and "How To Marry a Millionaire". We drove over to the Short Stop but because of the holiday, the crowd was super weird and I was sleepy so I went home.
Finally, today, we decided against another pool party due to the weather (and our new anti-social tendencies) and found a $2 movie theatre in pasadena. We saw a double feature of "Adventureland" and "I Love You Man"....amazing. We both saw two movies for $8....you can't beat it.

And now my long weekend is coming to an end and I'm going to end up pooping out at 10:30 and I'm totally okay with that.

paparazzi lights

I'm way more tired than I deserve to be I can barely think but I'm super excited that Love gave me her old camera (Nikon D70) today and I went straight to samy's and bought a lens for it and all I want to do is take pictures of everything...and I will.....tomorrow and beyond. I'm sad that my trip to S.F. this weekend was canceled within a matter of seconds but I know I'll have a great weekend anyway....especially sleeping in saturday.


srsly so fucking tired. and excited. i bet my dreams will rule tonight.

I dare you to tell me that The Arcade Fire isn't a good band.







I also broke a sink this weekend. I had no idea that they could just fall out of the wall so easily but they can. also...earthquake? its like saying "dodger's baseball?" "good weather?" "bacon-wrapped hot dogs?".....tell me something that isn't "LA" and i might start to care.

"you're a mess, sellers"

es la verdad.

i'm weird and lightheaded today. I can't really concentrate and although I know in the blur of an alcohol infused conversation that everything is fine, I can't help but feel horrible and hypocrytical still. In a gesture to show that I don't really care, because you don't really care...I ended up hurting you because you do, and I do and we've been foolish to think otherwise. it's silly and embarassing.

And I'm really sorry.

i love L.A. (we love it)

i just arrived home from a great Dodger game and the house smells like carnitas and i am no where near hungry but i can't wait to eat it tomorrow. too much beer and junk food but it was worth it.

i'm getting nervous about not loving life again. when you're up, you fear the down. i'm finally up and i just wonder how long i can willfully sustain it before i feel like everything comes crashing down again. its honestly all money related. i hate that. i hate that the quality of my mood is so dependent upon it. gah. whatever.

...did i mention i'm moving back to echo park? :D
