Cali Girl in NYC

I've lived in California for 24 years, and decided to move clear across the country for law school. this will be where all can come to laugh at me as i die in the humidity and freeze in the snow as my california body adjusts to life in new york city...through this blog, i hope to have everyone else suffer just a little with me as i make my way through law school

yaaaawn

yesterday, my older brother lorin came into nyc to do a show. i was really excited because even when i was living in california, i didnt get to see him much, so its always great when i get to see him.
he came out to my apartment in brooklyn for a few hours yesterday, and i wanted to take him around brooklyn heights, and down to the bridge, etc etc. one small hitch in the plan: fall has hit. it was unbelievable ASS COLD with an extra special biting wind "nipping" at any inch of exposed skin. we did walk down the promenade so i could show off the amazing view that i have from my apartment, and that was great, and i walked him by the outside of my school.
i had gotten together alex, jj, mitchell, and heather to go with me to lorin's show last night. heather wound up bailing, so it was me and the boys. but they seemed to have fun--poor mitchell was half asleep in the corner the whole time, but he seemed to have fun (i hope!).
i hadnt been to one of lorin's shows since....hmm...i honestly cant remember. i know i saw him my first year of college, five years ago, but i cant remember if i have seen him since. well, in that time, his music and performance has definitely evolved. that is not to say that he wasnt awesome back then, but its just different now.
it was really fun, too, to watch the crowd with him, and to hear people talking about how awesome bassnectar is! it was great because the dj who was on before lorin had a crowd of people dancing, but when lorin went on, the floor was PACKED. and when lorin finished, the dance floor basically cleared. i was so proud.
he did really fun mixes of the bangels, walk like an egyption, missy elliot's "pass the dutch," and some 1920s-ish music. it was freaking INSANE. he was awesome.
but, now im tired, but i have to pull it together to get up to the upper west side to bring my friend erin some lunch. the poor girl just started her first couple of weeks as a first year associate at a lawfirm here, and they are WORKING her, and now she has pneumonia. then, after i get up there, ive got to get back here to do some studying, then i have three different things to do tonight...
its so hard to be popular...



fargo is a butt-faced miscreant!

I think you do a pretty good job. . .oh dear, is that pathetic if your mother says it? Ask Fargo. Or Summer for that matter.
