meanwhile far away in another part of town...

So around this time last year we were out in Los Angeles...today I battled with cold, rainy weather, things we never came across in sunny LA.
I thumbed through my journal today in a moment of nostalgia.
Here's an entry I found in between pages of song lyrics we wrote in the studio, literally in between a hand written note from Kay Hanley (yes she swiped my journal, I later found out) and lyrics to "Mona Lisa"

Dated: 03/2008 (I couldn't read the day on the date...strange ink smudge)

Today was a particularly good day. Thomas and I woke up early and walked down the block to our favorite coffee spot...ok really just the closest one to the hotel. We spotted that dude from "Thank You For Smoking", I don't remember his name but I think he's playing Two-Face in the new Batman movie. I've never been good at remembering celeb names.
We microwaved some old chocolate pastries we had laying around the hotel...not a good idea, much better fresh.
Man this iced black coffee is great!
Our rental car is amazing...Dodge Caliber, perfect gas mileage. If we get a day off I think we'll drive up to Zuma and lay in the sand for the day.
Went to Canter's Deli, well the Kibitz Room last night, met some amazing old school musicians playing some serious blues rock...amazing. The bar tenders are really cool there and the atmosphere is anti-hollywood, which is just what we're looking for.
We stayed out way too late though and my throat feels like I swallowed a cactus...maybe I did, I don't remember.
The satellite radio stations we listen to: Rolling Stones Radio, Indie Rock & Bruce Springsteen.
I need a Hite!
Off to the studio, we're running late and Stacy's already called us...we usually beat him there, ha.

This brought it all back in a flash...Doc Brown, where are you with your Delorean?
