The wonders of California still are impressing me. Again, the grocery store is the impetus behind this post. They have fruit here I've never even heard of! Tonight, I bought a "pluot" (don't ask me how to pronounce it, I have no idea), which is a cross between a plum and an apricot. I also looked up the forecast online to check out the weather for the next couple of days, and it had the prediction for tonight -- then the next entry was "Tuesday through Friday." Woooooo!

I recently was alerted to a Yahoo listserv of all these people I used to go to camp with. They're all talking about a reunion now after 10 years. I dunno... it seems kind of strange. I wonder how we'll all compare 10 years later. I wonder how different we'll all be. And again, I'm so glad that I went ahead and took this risk to move to L.A. and so forcefully pursue this job. It makes me feel so much better about myself and the direction my life has taken, and it definitely gives me an ego boost to proudly say that I'm where I want to be and doing what I want to do. I can face the rest of the world on my own terms now. Sorry that I keep coming back to this. I still just kind of can't believe that I actually did this, since I've never done anything like it before. As Bill says, "Life is fine with bread & butter, but sometimes your soul just needs that chocolate cake with ice cream."

Say what you will about the movie Fear, about its bad plot and Marky Mark's bad accent and the stupidity of it all. It's got a great soundtrack.
