It was a full day for me yesterday. I worked half of the day in my office as planned, but I cut out at noon and went to the LA Zoo. I hadn't been to the zoo since I about 10. I made sure to see the highlights. I can't recall the last time I saw an elephant or giraffe in person! The zoo was...

Last week's adventures featured another concert. This time, it was The Teskey Brothers. They are an Australian group who has a 60's soul sound which his been fused with some country and rock.

I went to the Lucha Vavoom Halloween show. The notable thing about this one was Ronda Rousey was a guest wrestler. That was really unexpected.

Friday night I went to see the singer, Teddy Swims. I wasn't too familiar with his music, but it was a good risk worth taking since the show ended up being above average.

Since I last posted on here, I have been keeping myself from home. I went to the Fans Strike Back exhibition in Santa Monica. It was an alright way to spend some time.

I went to Las Vegas and went to Omega Mart again. While there, I went into Sphere and watched Postcards From Earth, the Darren Aronofsky movie made for the arena. It was

Last week, I got some more Air Jordans, which on surface isn't a bad thing, but I definitely have more pairs of shoes than most people. It got me wondering why I buy so many shoes. As it turns out, spending can be a sign of loneliness and depression. I think I am using the dopamine hit from buying stuff as a way to cope

This weekend I went to Sneaker Con because I have to admit shoes have become a thing for me over the past few years. The shoe game is something else! One can go broke looking for rarities and new releases. I did get four pairs of Air Jordans over the weekend.

I also went to watch boxing. Going to the fights is usually fun. There

I spent Monday back at the Petersen Automotive Museum. I went with my brother this time, since I had never been before. I suppose this was our semi-annual brotherly outing. He enjoyed the trip which made it worth going. At lunch, I did my honest thing of the day when the girl at the Chipotle on Sunset gave me $20 too much change, but I

I was among the A list (and B list) celebrities last night at the Los Angeles Football Club match. The man of the night was the legend, Lionel Messi. His team, Inter Miami won 3-0, and he had two assists.

I can add him to the list of sports legends I have seen play in person. I didn't realize how big of a deal it

The one man adventure show has been continuing the last few days. Thursday night was a Dodgers game. I am not a Dodgers fan, but I don't root against them either, unless they are playing the New York Mets. They are good team though. I mostly wanted the bobblehead this time, since it was University of Southern California guy.

Friday was for movies and then

The last few days has been spent constantly on the go. I can use some time off from my time off! I am planning to take it easy in August, so we shall see how that goes.

Last Wednesday, I went to see my favorite soccer team, Arsenal, play FC Barcelona here in LA in SoFi Stadium, where the LA Rans and Chargers play. My...

It has been a busy month of July so far. My Jeep was at the dealership for three weeks getting fixed. It turned out a needed a new engine. Since my Jeep is still under warranty I got blessed with a new one for free! No charge for any of it! Gracias por Dios!🙏 Since I got my wheels back I have been making up...

I just realized I haven't written anything on here in over a month. It has been relatively quiet overall. I have gone to my fair share of movie, but the big summer movies largely have been an abomination (Fast X, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Flash, and Transformers come to mind). The one movie I have seen lately that was actually good is Past Lives....
