I am not my own Grampa...

some years back, I found this old business card of my Grandfathers' on my father's side (whom I never met)... kinda interesting & nostalgic-looking...

the real kicker, it seems, is on the back of the card...

don't ask me - I have no idea...

parting thought before bedtime...

I just saw Millenium Actress... good movie... go see it...
g'night...

oh, & it's my sister's birthday today (9.30), so you should spam her with happy jargon...

the aftermath, part 2...

I guess I was exhausted when I posted the other day... so, here's the elaborated version...

after court, we were practically already in Chinatown, so we hung around a bit - went to this one shop so Joe could get a boba drink (although they hadn't made it yet), & we could get smoothies & bread-type items...

while outside of the shop, Jennifer ended up squeezing this plant, it ended up shooting water in my eye... kinda funny...
then on to the Getty, where we mainly focused on the fountains, garden, & architecture... & for some reason, all of our shoes were squeaking when we were indoors...
then home, via Sepulveda & Sierra...

a little bit 'o justice...

well, it's over... it's fine... they threw out the charge (although I'm still at a loss for what the charge was supposed to be)... the court says leave me alone, officer...

so then we ended up going to the Getty... always nice...
then we took Sepulveda & Sierra all the way home (avoided the freeways)...

but that waking up at 6-ish am crap is gettin' to me, so I'm gonna go take a nap folks... wake me if anything interesting happens...

"the man" ...

so I just posted a silly little sketch in my art blog...

let's see, what else... oh, I'm goin' to court tomorrow - hopefully "the man" won't lock me up...
I'm going in for a bogus warrant that someone else with my name got on the metrolink - I don't even ride the metrolink (especially not around the time this was supposed to happen)... but that's not the part that could trip me up... see, I've got a an upaid traffic ticket - so they could be dicks about it... but that situation just reminds me of something my mom often used to say - "you can't get blood out of a turnip"... if you got ears, here that, cracka's...

thing's will probably be okay - not pleasant - but okay...

tired...

man... I am so not a morning person... gotta meet with my English teacher today (in lieu of class) we have the week off, but we gotta meet with him one day this week to go over our current paper...

then tomorrow I gotta go to court down in L.A. - more on that later (maybe)...

question... who likes mashups?

happy birthday mom!...

yesterday was my mom's birthday, so we went over to Crazy Otto's for her free meal - their veggie-burger isn't the best, but I suppose I should be happy they have one at all...

then we watched movies (Wagons East & Dr. Strangelove) & ate ice cream (!)... fun stuff...
