Moving to LA

I'm four days out from moving to LA. I want to start a garden at the new place and my father was telling me to make sure no one outside can see it. He's worried that people would try to break in to get food. However I know that I can only put plants in the back of the parking lot and that I would have to make raised beds AND that if I put up a screen my plants might not get enough sunlight. I'm really looking forward to eating my own produce as well as sharing it with others.

High Speed Car Chases

I was talking to two friends of mine from Cali who are currently residing in Florida. One asked me if I watched the high speed car chase today through LA. I, of course, had not since I wasn't watching TV at all today. So she told me about the Chase Parties. Apparently it is an impromptu party unless you are privy to the criminal mind behind the wheel. As soon as the chase is featured live on the news, you set up, call all your friends and take bets on when it will end and how.

Oh the Joy of the big city.
