Dear Insomnia-
Suck my metaphorical balls.
Yours,

The background noise of the moment is some kind of non-fiction TV about rare wood. The interior 12-year old is giggling at that.
Am a little water logged after schlepping to MacMall. The adapter kinda works because, obviously I'm online, but the power flow doesn't seem to be constant. My screen keeps fading in and out. So, will be back tomorrow to return the damn thing.
Started doing my taxes today and something seems awfully amiss. I don't know why it imported only part of my information. Nor do I understand how I'm living so close to the poverty line and yet, it looks like I'm going to owe.
On an upside,I saw a good east coast friend the other day. She is lovely and expecting a bebe soon. It does my heart when the awesome smart people breed.

Cheap Entertainment ... and times are tight
I really need to be doing something other than writing Missed Connections on Craigslist and seeing who replies. The best are when I post them in cities I've never been in.

Had a meet and greet with a store manager. I did a coffee tasting, paring one coffee which had been designed for restaurant use with 3 food items, to simulate an appetizer, entree and dessert.
He not only hated most of the pairing because it was savory, but he didn't think that I had any passion for food or coffee.
Are you fucking serious?
While I didn't come to LA to shine as a Barista, I hate people thinking that I'm not excellent at my job.

It's been a while since I've written anything other than a facebook status.
I'm planning on taking a writing class with second city in the next few months if I can do so without selling a kidney.
On a note that doesn't involve my bitching about my perspicacity deficit (lost 2 pairs of shoes, 2 pairs of spectacles, 1 v. expensive bra and my ability to remember customer orders)
uh... digress...
oh yeah! Lisa Congdon! She's an artist who, among other things, takes photos/draws collections. She did one collection a day for 2010. My favorites include the vintage airline bag tags, office supplies and fighter posters.

Food
Quick updates:
I'm getting moved to yet another coffee shop.
The newest internship is doing well, but I don't think that casting is where I want to be.
I love food. I love words. I love coffee. I love cocktails.
I love THIS cocktail, particularly the vodka version: http://www.chefkatealiveandcooking.com/cocktail.html
I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Kate the other day over brunch at Doughboys. If you're in LA and you eat meat? I highly recommend the red flannel corned beef hash.
As for a sight you should be reading:

It is beyond wonderful.
