i got a feelin, it didn't come free,

i got a feelin and then it got to me.

saw spoon at amoeba. what i like about this band is that they've managed to stay away from all of that contrived franzferdinandblocpartykillers 3rd rate wire/gang of four crap and produced yet another quality rock and roll record. solid. i've listened to it maybe 4 times since i got it a few hours ago. standing next to us was a curly-haired redhead who was using a 35mm admist a sea of digital cameras. god forbid that people actually put any work into developing their photos anymore. curly-haired 35mm girl, i salute you.



afterwards matt and i went to carney's (has nothing to do with carnivals or carnival-folk). maybe it's because i haven't been there in a while, but i'm pretty damn sure they increased the size of their burgers. this is a good thing.

speaking of victuals, the night before we made a midnight drive to el tapatio taqueria in glendale. that chorizo and egg burrito was worth every single one of those 20 miles. a suggestion to drive down to san diego for some santana's was entertained fondly for a few minutes. speaking of mexican food, i stumbled upon this blog. i fucking love it.

we took side streets home, in no rush to get back to the lameness that is westwood. we wanted to go ghost-hunting, yet akanksha whined that 3 wasn't a good enough sized group for the task.


"why do we need more people?"
"because i'm most likely to get killed if there's only three of us," she replied. "i'm the minority."

brilliant reasoning. anyway, ghosts supposedly abound in los angeles. if i had to guess, i'd say that any one of the old, abandoned historic hotels in downtown would be the ideal spot for paranormal activity. or any abandoned warehouse. the last couple of times i went home ghostbusters 1 & 2 happened to be on, on separate occasions. so i know what i'm talking about. now all we need is equipment and an abandoned firestation that we can use as headquarters and last but not least, a horn-rimmed glasses-wearing secretary from manhattan.

on a side note, in keeping up with what's new and happening i signed up with the internet archive for free video hosting (found this link on anti's blog). it's been a day and my video is still about number 15 in the queue. yesterday it was number 17. hopefully that will be ready soon so i can share my pointless, low-quality avis with the world.
