And before that...

who is loser?

chen is!

that is ok. i am ok loser.

It is saturday night and i just used kozmo.com to order videos in. I do not feel like going out. I didn't last night either. I do not feel like getting in my car. I do NOT feel like drinking and probably won't for a while... did myself in on Thursday night at the Virgin Records christmas party, which was appropriately ASSSSAY. There was inSANELY horrible music, and half naked people in little window boxes touching each other suggestively. I have no real problems with half or even fully naked people touching themselves and each other openly as entertainment but like, Merry Christmas? Couldn't they at least have worn little santa hats? Open bar though.

I got my car washed for the first time since I moved today. As in, i had never washed off the cross country insect melange from the grill, or the windshield, or much of anywhere. My car was ugly. I kinda forgot that it's a rather nice shade of blue until I saw it emerge from the shower. I was like, damn baby! Take off that shammy and let's make sweet tender love! You blue, blue fox.

I ate guavas fresh from the tree on Thursday, that was hot. But did not do very much to put me in the Christmas Spirit, as really nothing in Los Angeles has done much to put me in the Christmas Spirit. I mean yeah, on the one hand there's the weather as an obvious cause but on the other... they just don't go overboard out here. Maybe they do in the suburbs or something, and i guess i haven't really set foot in a mall in a while. No, wait, i did. And yeah, it was just not a winter wonderland. I guess it would be silly for people to you know, lay out the cotton snow and all that around here, I sympathize with the meaningless of many traditional Christmas decorations in this climate, but like... people just don't have that apeshit mentality. Which is fine, i'm not a christmas ape-shitter personally, but I guess i do kind of willingly take in what others dish out, maybe more than I realized. It's not problematic except that I'm discovering that I rely on that "christmas down the throatsy poo" atmosphere to remind me to get my christmas shopping done. Tomorrow's the pasadena swap meet; perhaps I can get it all done in one day.

Oh yeah! The farmer's market! I got shown the fairfax farmer's market last week and hoooooooooly. So good. J says there's karaoke there some nights; it's on the list of things to check out. Highlight of grocery shopping there was when i bought this delicious amazing loaf of bread and the man who sliced and bagged it for me handed me the heel and said "here, have a nosh." People who use the word nosh automatically go to heaven, I'm pretty sure.
