Mon Dieu!

today i roughly drew where i wanted my road trip to go. Google Maps doesn't allow infinite destinations, so i have to split it up; south trip and north trip.

How long do you think this would take?! Also, any interesting points i should go on the way? AAAAND.. if I stop in your area, can I crash your couch?!

this is one neglected lj page, but soon i will be brandishing new blogs every other minute as i just got my walking papers from the LA Times/Metromix. my last day is April 13th. anyone with job leads for me, let me know! also, anyone who wants to hang out in the middle of the day like proper layabouts, let me know as well!

did a photo shoot with lisa last sunday, and they came out pretty nice. have a gander!

I'm practically in his lap...

( wha?! )

I actually got to yell "STOP THE PRESSES!!" at work today. My dreams have been fulfilled.

add bacon to anything and it will be awesome. Evidence:

Bacon Sprinkled Donut from Nickel Diner



Bacon Wrapped Shrimp from Renu Nakorn



Bacon Wrapped Trout from Church and State



i have yet to try the bacon ice cream from scoops, but i hear its marvelous.

ariel and I made a stop at the annual lobster fest a couple weeks ago and our nail beds stunk of lobster for nearly 2 days. It was all worth it tho, the lobster was quite tasty. Also, in hindsight if I went alone I wouldve been able to consume 2 lobsters instead of 1. Notes for next year.

I get locked out of my apt more often than I'd like to admit. I should wear a key around my kneck as if I were ok kindergarten. Tho, when I was in kimdergarten I never had to worry about keys and such since our nanny was always there to greet us with a chocolate crepe. Man, I could go for a chocolate crepe right about now.

i got an email this morning for something called socal supper club. i dont recall signing up for them, but who knows... anyhoo their next event is at Tanzore. Part of their copy is:

SoCal Social Club once again visits Tanzore, but this time it's to experience what Metromix calls "a jewel of modern Indian cuisine."

yeah, i wrote that. and they didnt even credit me. the bastards.

so just after a short 6 weeks at metromix, i was promoted as the full time photo editor, huzzah!

and with that, the time that i thought i would have more of was dashed away. fortunately though the work is challenging and fulfilling.

im just feeling exhausted lately. i recently just met up with many friends i havent seen a few weeks ago and it was so nice. i promised myself that i need to make more time for myself... i can never say no to any projects, argh..

this weekend has been crazy, shooting anime expo, 4th of july etc, and my mom is coming tomorrow to visit. i wonder if i will get my customary zits of stress...

going to try to lay down and bear the heat.
