JOURNAL:
ODE TO LOS ANGELES:
Just got home from the second day in a row (go me ) of running at RUNYON CANYON in Hollywood. Have I mentioned how much I love looking at the city from up there? Right at the top is Mullholland Drive - I know I have written about it before. While looking out on the panarama of the view from the edge of Pacific Palisades to beyond Downtown Los Angeles, I always feel that song from back in the day (shut up, I am young) that was written for my fair lady, La Ciudad de Los Angeles.
Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The City of Angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry
I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and
She kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way (yeah yeah)
It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The City she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry
Under the bridge downtown
Is were I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away (yeah yeah)
Ooh no (no no yeah yeah)
Love me I say yeah yeah
- Red Hot Chili Peppers, "Under the Bridge" 1991
if there was a god in existance, I would exhault praises for the entity that I feel this city holds. And I thank whatever god is out that for placing me here all my life.
These are the moments I realize why I fight with all my might to remain in her wonderful embrace.
and thank you, icariancypher, for the lovely dinner and conversation last night. You make me realize I am not alone - thanks for the smile. You will always be my #1. Always.
puss puss,

Awaiting Javert's visit this month (that should be fun... wow we are going to go nuts!) as well as working on the new film "War of the Worlds". I have a few photoshoots scheduled.. meetings and shoots actually. Also, the bartender paid me a visit on Wednesday night - and called me the next day when I told him I would call him. hum. he made a big deal about me calling him first.... wtf? Oh well, I have to get my final paycheck today anyway.. so I guess I will be seeing him! Not sure how I feel about it.. it is the first clean cut "knowing what we both want from each other" thing I have had - and I am releaved. And, the Prince Charming is back in my life... for the moment.
le sigh. one day at a time... one goal at a time. right babe?
Mahalo.
