"Life Could Be Worse. 5:24 PM"

--quote from Dave Barton looking out not far from his place in Santa Monica....

I have to say I agree.

Isn't this why people move to Southern California?

Quote of the Day from Dave

Jessica: Whats up?

Dave: Just trying to keep food on the table...good food...like white truffle risotto, not mac n cheese.

MOCA: Index

John Baldessari

Please come to L.A., we'll live forever
The California life alone is just too hard to bear
We'll live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And we'll see stars fall from the sky, livin' up on the hill

The Second Sentence of Everything I Read is You. Stephen Prina performed pop songs about love, sex & death.

Chinatown @ the Mountain Bar. Memories of funny times past. New memories of these funny times. I had a major migraine, so Stephen Prina's performance irony was lost on me at first...but then it kicked in to my slow brain as my pain wore off. He was a dear. And so was that Ezra with the insane massage--that certainly helped the migraine away.

Dave is the best gentleman ever. He disappeared outside and comes back with magical sandalwood fans for Linlee & me. Index artists Kevin Hanley and T. Kelly Mason DJ'd. The highlight for me was Grace Jones. So primal.
