would be boring this weekend, as it
always is the weekend after holiday.
And where would I stay in LA?
Jorge's is too small. Dick + Pat is out.
Rik Callista I don't know well enough,
certainly not to stay several days.

So I will leave tomorrow evening,
as my ticket shows now.

LA is not that attractive to me.
[yellow]So many people without character,[/yellow] dull,
no fun outfits, no romantic geography,
no boat cruises. [yellow]Leave it behind.[/yellow]
But this was a fun way to spend
Labor Day weekend Saturday + Sunday.
(Don't count day in LA. It was a lesson.)

1:15 Pack up + check out...
Call Rik Callista

2:00 On my Way to LA up I5

3:00 Look around [yellow]Silver Lake[/yellow] + try Jorge. Not at home.
Drive up Sunset to Edgemont +
see [yellow]Los Feliz.[/yellow] North of Franklin,
between Normandie + Western [yellow]is nice.[/yellow]
But to get to gym you have to go
through [yellow]scum.[/yellow] Hacky or bland architecture
poor blacks, spanish, ugly traffic. Spanish
billboards, McDonald's + its pathetic patrons
on La Brea. It feels very uncomfortable
to me.

4:00 Stop at McD for snack. Same old
place w/pathetic clientele.

I [yellow]HATE HOLLYWOOD.[/yellow]
