Things I Missed While I Was Away from Los Angeles

My hometown has about 25,000 people or so. And it’s in Oklahoma. And I was there for 21 days. Culture shock.

  1. Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf
  2. Trader Joe’s
  3. Whole Foods
  4. Vegetarian Food in General (Vegetarian food in Oklahoma means bread and/or cheese)
  5. my beautiful cats, Emma and Lomo
  6. husband (yeah, I put Coffee Bean ahead of him. Don’t fuck with my soy vanilla lattes, no sugar added)
  7. my DVR. My mom’s was all filled up with Dr. Phil or Oprah so I had limited room for my shit.
  8. my clothes. I wasn’t planning on being gone so long so I only brought a carry on bag with about 3 days worth of clothes. They were washed and worn A LOT.
  9. Sunshine. It rained almost every day I was back home.
  10. My car. I had to give up my beloved Honda Element for some white Pontiac rental car. 
  11. My Tempurpedic mattress and pillow. I slept on my mom’s couch for 20 nights.
  12. seeing plastic surgery nightmares on a daily basis

Stuff I’m Gonna Do Today ( I swear!)

  1. Watch part of The Corner, assuming Netflix has shipped it.
  2. Get my daily crack/Iced Soy Vanilla Latte, No Sugar Added from Coffee Bean
  3. Return the library books I never read. Look, I tried to read Anthony Kiedis’ autobiography, but the writing was so bad I never got past page 2.
  4. Go to post office to mail a card to my Grandma who is really sick. She can’t understand me on the phone but she can still see the pictures of puppies and kittens well enough, that I try and send a card every couple of days.
  5. Look for new apartment because our lease is up at the end of March. The new one will have concrete or hardwood floors.
  6. Either call or go get a haircut.

EDIT: I already did 2-4 because I am up early. Go me!

    Stuff I Definitely Will Not Do Today

    1. Make any progress on gathering my tax stuff and finding a new accountant. I’m leaving that ‘til March.
