Speaking of this weekend…IT WAS SO EPIC!
Jenn and I had many adventures — and misadventures — in spontaneity this weekend, but ultimately we spent roughly the past 36 hours on a spur-of-the-moment trip to LA.
There will be plenty of recaps, details and stories here over the next few days, but to illustrate just how unplanned this trip was, let me outline for vous my (utter-lack-of-)packing list:
In addition to wearing shorts and a T-shirt and shoes and socks, I took:
- one of those little drawstring backpacks
- two swimsuits and a Speedo
- a small bag of Mike and Ikes
- an ASU hat
- sunglasses
- my car keys
- my wallet
- my cell phone
- my camera
- my SSP water bottle
- and a borrowed contact case
Along the way, I also picked up and added to my bag:
- Greyhound bus tickets
- a Fun Times magazine from McDonald's in Quartzsite, Ariz.
- a one-day bus pass from Union Station in downtown LA
- antiperspirant from a Ralph's in Hollywood
- The Golden Gazette, which basically pimps L. Ron Hubbard's books (I think), from Hollywood
- a church bulletin from Crescent Heights UMC in West Hollywood
- and sand in assorted places
Anyway, like I said, more details will be forthcoming, but for now I've gotta get ready for work and chow down on some dinner and/or breakfast.
