peg22because I miss L.A. I saw Kevin Costner at this taco stand. I also saw and had a great time with him again . . . at another Mexican restaurant . . . what can that mean? I don't miss Kevin Costner. Well, I miss the Bull Durham, Field of Dreams Kevin Costner. I don't miss Waterworld or the Postman Kevin Costner. In fact, when I think of L.A. I don't think of Kevin Costner at all. Unless I eat a taco. Then I do.
In other news, being betrothed is good. Kinda like it's always Christmas Eve. State of Anticipation. But, like Kevin Costner, sometimes I don't think of it at all. I'm thinking fall, apple orchard, linen dresses . . . she's thinking in the living room, lots of cake, big honeymoon . . .
My neighborhood in L.A. was perfect. I lived a block from the Brady Bunch house. I could walk up to Jennifer's Coffee and Henry's Tacos and Aroma Cafe . . . walk, did I mention that? Walk? In L.A. But of course, I often drove. On the way to somewhere else. To sit in traffic. In a canyon. I saw Patrick Stewart once in traffic. We were going opposite directions through Coldwater Canyon - he had the sweetest Jaguar, which is why I even noticed him. And so then I thought I'd turn around and try to follow him . . . yeah, well, two hours later and far from my destination . . . a cautionary tale indeed.
The cable guy is here now. We are communicating in a French/English way that seems less than conducive for cable installation.
Wish me luck!

Now, if she and thee want to take a vacay, and hang with old Huggy, I'm all for it. We can wax nostalgic, eat tacos, drive Mulholland, and do some stalking!
