promenading

after recovering from magic mountain (cami and i totally trashed our feet when we went) we spent the morning doing nothing. that's right, nothing. eden went to aerobics, but we stayed in bed. and when i did get up i had to hobble around for a little while. that wasn't so fun as it may seem.

but after that we - eden, cami, flynn and i - went to little tokyo. we wandered around the grocery store for a little while and got an absurdly large amount of the fruit gummies, at least on my part. and then after we ate a delightful lunch of curry donuts (so good!) we went to the hello kitty store for a little while. and cami and i got something very special there.


and then we left to meet clint at his work down in santa monica where christianna was to also meet us. we got there, clint came out to meet us and eden immediately made him guess what cami and i bought. his clue? what is the silliest thing he can think of to do there. funny enough, his first answer was correct.

yup, that's right. we got underwear. this is actually the $1 pair i got because i thought it was funny. we also got normal-people sized underwear.

and i must say that although christianna's suggestions - taking off all our clothes and running around screaming, dressing up like hello kitty, painting hello kitty on our faces but then being so embarassed that we had to wash it off - were still good, i like what we actually did.

so after meeting clint at his work and finding christianna, we all walked down the to the 3rd street promenade. there were some pretty cool things there. a couple of guys were dancing in the street so we all stopped to watch them for a while. it was insane! i cannot describe to you what these guys did. crazy-sauce! we also found a games store that had some pretty fun things, but most of them were fairly run-of-the-mill.

it started getting pretty late so we decided to find some dinner and then keep looking. clint told us that as we walk along if we see something we want we should just call it out so that we can stop and eat. but because it was really busy, there pretty much wasn't any room once we did stop. so as the night wore on, we were getting more and more hungry and even the places that didn't have a wait didn't have room for six people. so we walked back to the cars. and then we went to this place called norm's that used to be a denny's. there we found that there was a half-hour long wait. so then clint ran across the street to see if the same was true for denny's. it wasn't so we went there. that was an adventure. we got in there, sat down. decided what we were going to eat and then since we were already all tired, clint ran off to get someone to help us. perry came then. this really um...interesting man. he was very friendly, but then he got in major trouble with these two people i suppose were the managers of the place. apparently, he was taking tables that weren't his. however, no one was helping us, so what was the problem if he did? it was really dumb.

clint made sure to tell the managers that perry was just doing his job and doing it very well since whoever was supposed to help us didn't. i was really glad that he did.
