After class I went on a search for quinoa pasta. "Paaaasta," not "Pawsta"... it was actually funny in Sketching class - people started talking about Degrassi - but pronouncing it "Degrawssi" ... oh American accents. Anyways, the Whole Foods that I hate (Santa Monica & Fairfax) obviously didn't have it, so I had to go to former-home-sweet-palazzo-whole-foods. Of course they had it. And they even had spelt pasta! So I got both. And came home and un-froze my sauce from my birthday and had a delicious (and semi-healthy) pasta dinner! Leigh came home from pilates, we did abs, watched Top Model, and I had a cupcake as a reward for making it through 5 days of the Gwyneth Detox. Time for bed cause we might be going to surf Ventura tomorrow!
October 20
Most productive day yet! Actually, the day before my birthday was pretty crazy productive too so maybe this is tied. Anyways, 8:30 class. Liquid lunch at Leaf. Kinkos/Fedex to get my homework logos printed on quality paper and mail a package to Momsie. Sports Club. Met with good old Ash to talk membership prices. It's not as steep as I thought! It's pretty much the same as the Cricket Club! Soooo i've decided to join. I had a little spinning sesh and then made my way to Venice. I met Colin, Dave & Rony at Colin & Rony's place, we piled into Colin's white Xplorer and headed to the beach. Colin and Dave were trying to convince me that shoulder height waves would actually be easier for me. I didn't buy it. I like ankle height waves. So we get to the beach, the waves are wayyyy too huge for me and it was really windy so they were messy. I venture out into the water and get destroyed by the waves. I hadn't been tossed around like that since the first California summer! Leigh and Robyn - flashback to the times of needing a breath and not knowing if you're gonna make it to the top! So basically after getting pummeled by waves I decided to go in. Colin apologized for mis-judging the waves... (but what he really mis-judged was my surfing skills, which are lacking). Anyways, we took some good snaps, and started freezing our asses off and headed back to the car. Came home, showered and got ready in record timing to meet William at Urth at 9ish. It was so wonderful to see him again! I just love good old Willy. He's always got such entertaining stories to tell... cars breaking down on the way home from Vegas, getting married in helicopters to Russian girls just so they can get a Visa, hallucinogenic detox stories... etc. We also discovered a new item on the menu - some sort of amazing sushi roll thing that was pure deliciousness! We also made friends with the people at the table beside us who were eavesdropping and told me that i HAD to join the Sports Club. It was a fabulously fun and fabulously eventful day! I felt like the NewMediaAthletes* Christine again... busy busy busy and running around all over the place! Although Derek was not there to chauffeur around and get parking/illegal left turn tickets with. But that's a good thing.
Spotted: The Jolie-Pitts' bulldog. Did you know they had a bulldog?
