well, we did it. we blew them away. that was one of the most fun things ever.
sonya said it felt surreal. its true, it was hard to believe it was actually happening.
we sold exponentially more merch than we ever have. and we rocked hard.
the ventura kids were screaming. it was insane, if the rest of the shows are even half as good as that one, we are in good shape.
i love the shins, the music and the people.
after the show, the shins went on to LA cuz they were recording the next day.
so we went around the corner to winchesters where we were the only folks there.
its on main street, we got bushmills on ice and the bartender poured some very gen erous portions. when pat mentioned it, the bartender said he has irish arthritis, once his hand turns, he has a hard time wrenching it back down.
we closed that place out and went back to the vagabond innn and watched some mr. show before passing out. we were all amazingly tired from packing the nite before. i got up early and went running and did some yoga on the beach. it kicked ass. we had breakfast at the hotel restaurant, also called the vagabond. i got carded for my pacifica and my credit cards fell out and slipped down behind the booth, which took about 15 minutes and the help of an awesome busboy to pull the booth out and dig around with a flashlight to find them. now we're on the road to LA, the wiltern is huge!
carb options. a whole new line of food designed for the carb conscious.
inlcuding lipton low carb lemon flavored ice tea.
the worst carb things we have seen so far is the tea, the low carb flavored water, and the real topper, low carb dog food. really, we saw it in the window of a pet store in LA. insanity. when will it end?
carbs are good for you. you need some.
also, pat & i learned from the back of the heinz ketchup bottle that lycopene is a powerful antioxidant. and guess what? its found naturally in heinz ketchup. naturally. isn't that amazing? who knew? i would have thought it found naturally in tomatoes, but i guess i was wrong.
these entries last 2 entries are old, but this is the first chance i've had to get to the interweb. more soon.
love,
gg
