Chillin’ in the City of Angels…

…with an actual Angel! (if you scope the Facebook or MySpace haunts, there’s some photographic proof 🙂 )

I’m trying to view this as a week of R & R (though there are certainly a few work-related threads to be tied or snipped) – luckily the weather and the schedule so far are accommodating:

– MONDAY: chill by the pool
– TUESDAY: some low-key meetings in the ‘Wood.
– WEDNESDAY: Disneyland!!!
– THURSDAY: connecting with the Kirb’…
– FRIDAY: new work-related pals for D&D (no Dice…just dinner and drinks 😉 )
– SATURDAY: rock ‘n’ roll at the original ROXY!!!

Sounds like a pretty groovy week to me…but if any of you have some suggestions to add to the pile, feel free – that’s what this whole Web 2.0 thing is for 😀

    No trip to So-Cal is complete without the following:
    – The Getty Museum (if you haven’t done it yet, you are dead to me – great way to spend an afternoon during the week… less tourists)
    – Visit the Robots: Kid Robot and Giant Robot 1 and 2 – all in Santa Monica
    – Consume on the Santa Monica Promenade

    Actually Disneyland sucks, and I don’t mean that in a left-wing anti-corporate sort of way ,it just sucks. And here’s a list of my personal experiences outlining why

    Firstly food:$37 for McDonalds and it’s even warm when you get it.
    $1.50-2.00 a piece for those little yogurt cups that you can get a 6 pack of at any other store for $3. $24 for a carton of milk and six cookies,

    Secondly service: with their room service you have to go down to the lobby to meet them. You only get about 12 channels on your tv (except for the news stations they’re all Disney) and they’ve got the subtitles for the deaf people running on all of them with no way to turn it off. But than again you’re not staying there so I don’t know how big of a deal this will be.

    Thirdly, other people in the park: Beached walruses is the only way of describing a lot of the women there, plus they’re all in wheelchairs due to their fatness and you have to wait for fucking ever while they figure a way to get them on the rides.

    Fourthly: The park is overcrowded, and nearly every other theme park
    has better rides than they do. You remember the kiddie ride where they had the helicopters going around in a circle bobbing up and down, replace those with Elephants and you’ve got the flying Dumbo ride. And there’s like a five hour wait for it.

    So yeah save the 80 dollar price of admission and buy a big bag of the sticky icky. You’ll thank me for it later.

    Top Reasons Why dumbwhiteguy Sucks:

    1. He obviously doesn’t know when to visit Disneyland. It should be done ALWAYS during the off-season months: (February-May) AND during a weekday. Less people.

    2. He doesn’t know that staying at the Disneyland Hotel is both a ripoff and a waste of time. He doesn’t know how to hunt around to get the better rates at the surrounding hotels, or actually have friends in the LA area he can stay with…FOR FREE!

    3. He actually EATS the crap food at the park. Did you know that you are allowed to bring your own snacks and drinks into the park? (As long as the drinks aren’t alcoholic).

    4. He also is missing the fact that Disneyland is a place that can create the atmosphere of euphoria in ANYONE and people are drawn to that, even the not so socially desirable. All he has to do is just enjoy his day and stop dwelling on other people’s problems.

    5. He also doesn’t know that the price of admission is $63, not $80.

    To sum up…dumbwhiteguy really does live up to his name.

    …and he is jealous that he isn’t going to Disneyland with me and Brooke. NAH NAH NAH NAHHH NAHHHHHH!!!!!

    What FA? It’s not like I was the guy in the Mickey Mouse costume that told you that there was a “world of joy” in the bathroom behind magic mountain when you were little.

    God do I miss the old days when trolling was rampant.
