half of beer in me and call me dangerous. i didn't find out exactly what happened except that money doesn't always buy something when other people want it too. bidding for a house in california is nothing like ebay - you can't see what the other bids were, or who finally won and for how much. at least not for months. and months from now

I'm starting as a student, homework and such! maybe parties, hello welcome to campus. but for me, so I decided to spend this summer arranging my life here hah! driving around accepting invitations. i just set up an office in a small house near Brooks and 4th in Venice beach. I promise myself I'll enjoy the out of doors here.

today I just feel very tired. And somehow I ended up renting a furnished sublet without a bed. I'll find a mattress tomorrow, craig willing. until then, i'll sleep on the couch. once my roommate's nice laryngital girlfriend is done watching "my so called life."

until then, i can entertain my fingers in a bare room with no mattress. but, thankfully, there is a fan.

the longer I'm away from my possessions, media objects and art pieces and extra clothes and lights and furniture, all in storage, the less a part of me it seems to be. but still i had a sort of driven geeky fun setting up my desk today - two computers, speakers. An office, for a few weeks - it's what I do to start feeling at home.
