Daily affirmations of a word mercenary
Rainy Angeles
A massive rainstorm rolled through LA tonight. Rain much more intense than the sort that falls in Seattle. I suppose the ground is thirstier, so it all makes sense.
Tonight Andreas is at a Lord of the Rings late show, while I watched Temptation Island 2 with Megasoul (special “old school reader” points for those who remember my adoration of Tempation Island last year). Now I am preparing for bed, since we have a long drive ahead of us tomorrow: roughly 10 hours up to Mount Shasta. The car has been quite amazing, so I’ll be positive and assume it will continue being so.
We’ll get home Saturday night, just late enough to miss a dinner with my aunts and cousins that my mom swears I committed to attend. Shit. Then Sunday morning it’s up early for brunch with the same aunts and cousins, then the afternoon spent at the Island School 25th anniversary thingy (I went to elementary school there), and then the evening with my parents and Andreas for our li’l Christmas/Solstice thang.
Andreas and I have agreed to make eachother presents. No purchasing things for one-another. That means either writing, recording, or building something special for mah lerv. Anyone have any ideas?
