California Love

So, the past week has been spent in CA, hanging out with friends, making new ones, and exploring the southern part of this greta state. Man, it's such a crazy place. I got some of the best pictures I have ever seen here and I bought a 24mm lens just for the trip because I am tired of the damn 50mm that I was using before. Here's what we did
Teusday:
- arrived in Long beach
- waited for Michelle to pick us up...she was having sex with her boyfriend at her house when we called
- Michelle picked us up and we went back to her house and hung out in the paradise that is her back yard...fucking amazing (I got some great pictures of the yard, using the two lenses and some nice NC film)
- had a smoothie at the Secret Spot
- smoked a bowl (of tobacco products)
- became a traveling mariachi band with Hank on the way from there
- went to Laguna beach and took some more pictures with Ali, Michelle, and Hank.
- left Laguna beach in this weird parade full of hip, cool people that Michelle got friendly with (she reminds me of Bridget Kelly with her crazy friendliness)...Michelle brought her shaker and was in on it...so funny
- went to a Thai restaurant and met Michelle's sisters (Lily is cool but the other one was kind of a jerk right form the start)
- went home and hung out across the street and slept in Lily's bed with Ali
Wednesday:
- left for LA in Michelle's 1990 Volvo...that she so nicely let us borrow
- got to LA and parked in Glenn's hood
- went on an excursion down the walk of the stars
- saw the Hollywood sign
- saw a lot of weird things and had lunch at a Mexican grill that served to Ali
- took more photos and got to the Chinese movie theater (world famous one) and noticed that there was a shoot going on (an Arri 435 Extreme w/ anamorphic lenses...crazy shit)
- walked further down
- went back to the car
- drove to Malibu beach and had a romantic time there...so much so that we ended up having sex there...he he he
- drove back to Glenn's
- went with Glenn to the package store
- on the way we got sidetracked by Peter Quesada (an AWESOME guy that is Glenn's neighbor)...who is a Sagitarius and it shows...seriously...another dude who was there was a DP and he had claimed that he had used the Panavision Genesis on a recent shoot...I am kind of skeptical
- went to the package store
- hung out with Ali, Ali (Glenn's roomie who was in Spy Kids 3...the main villian actually), Glenn, and Ali's girl who's name escapes me at the moment
- slept uncomfortably on the floor while Ali slept on the couch
Thursday:
- hung out in Hollywood for a little longer
- ate at El Pollo Loco
- went to the Arclight that Glen works at and were about to see a movie when we spotted these maniquens (sp?) that we photographed where the opening of the Hills Have Eyes was going to be
- decided to not see a movie
- went back to Peter's house to photograph him
- talked with him for a LONG time about philosophy
- left LA
- Ali almost killed three Mexican women in a crosswalk after taking a quick left at a green light in front of oncoming traffic and I yelled, "please don't kill those women!!!" as she sped towards them
- got back to Michelle's
- she had to work
- hung out at Lily's before we left for dinner at a Middle Eastern restaurant (never get a Jalab at a restaurant...a drink "infused with incense".....GROSS)
- went back to Lily's
- fell asleep with Ali on Michelle's bed
- Michelle let us sleep there and pulled my shoes off...I had stinky feet...gross
Friday:
- woke up to some kickass omelets
- Michelle left for work
- Hank drove us to the train station but accidentally went too far and caused us to end up at "The Mission"
- arrived in Encinitas and met Ali's Mom who is really really cool/nice..(she dated Marvin Gaye at one point in her life..crayz I know)
- ate dinner at a Japanese place
- hung out
- slept
Saturday:
I will write more about it tomorrow
Sunday:

I am sick of typing....kind of uneventful so far
