ahhh sunday.

this past month has been awesome. nothing much to do then just life... oh and sweat. it's been hot. not very good for my body. but i've been staying indoors as much as i can.

the fact that it is already aug 22nd is crazy. we have been in la now for 9 months! it seems like we just got here. but we've each had 2 jobs since being here so.. i guess 9 months sounds right.

oh i don't know if i mentioned that we aren't going on a trip any time soon. so don't look out for pictures. i know its lame. but it just can't happen right now. meanwhile we have been enjoying falafel fridays and sunday nap times. tonight some friends are going to come over for a swim. and thats free to do. so double bonus.

friday night we got to go see john legend and the roots play at the troubadour. it was like watching history for sure. they are coming out with a collaboration record in september so there were playing some small promo shows. and since its coming out on columbia.. we got free tickets (notice free? yes.) it was amazing to see them play in such a small club. and common came out for 2 songs which ruled. as we walked back to the car (a million miles away) naz and i talked about how awesome it is that we get to live here. so even though we are dirt poor. and missing our families and friends. we can see the blessings that God has been giving us. we both decided that even if given the chance to go back to san diego or to stay. we would definitely stay. Los Angeles... you have impressed us.

so much... so little

why does it have to be so darn freaking hot? this week has been harsh. but thank fully naz is letting me have the black car while its so hot. its been in the low 80's down in beverly hills... so i think he'll be just fine. meanwhile the valley has been getting hot and i need the a/c.

so yesterday my doc called and said i have hashimotos. its what has caused my thyroid to fail. there's no other treatment then what they are already doing... so.. nothing is going to change in my life.. other then the japanese jokes i'm sure to get from my family. my mom will blame it on the fact that i like sushi i'm sure.

this last weekend was a lot of fun. some friends of naz's came up for an art show so we met them for record store shopping and dinner and then they came over before we all went to the art show. it was a ton of fun.. and nice to see friends. for some reason most people in san diego don't think the 5 goes north after encinitas. my sister has been up of corse a few times but not much of anyone else. but we'll be going down for labor day.

i need to take some snap shots of new stuff i've gotten. a rad clock and a little ottoman i got for 9 bucks at our goodwill. funds have been tight. and when i say tight i mean.. squeezed. so i didn't get this table i really wanted. maybe this week i can go back and see if its still there.

off to work. no clients this week... fingers crossed i'll get some.
