Today was the first day that the whole people were in Los Angeles at the same time. But most of us were chilling in some other location. I tried to take advantage as best that I could.
I called up the homie LZO and he drove up to my place. We drove up to the hill top which gives you a thief's view of LA, because it steals your breath away. and you have to be alert and snatch that breath back.
We talked extensively about how it was to be away from home. About our college days that seemed way louder and more intrusive than our simple days in high school. Its so hard talking about the past, because you know that you can never have it back. We told ourselves to be prepared for leaving this place, because when we would come back, every thing would change, and it has. This world is progressing in a way that is just not cool. Its like injecting a tiered animal with adrenaline until it cant move.
We called up old friends April and Karina and went over 'her' place. I wrapped up the fun and we went on the roof to smoke it. thats what we do, climb roofs, talk about stuff, i mean the weed is there, but its not essential. its convenient.
After we toked, the roof that we were upon literally looked like the moon. Karina had to go which was pretty sad. Me and LZO went downstairs into the apartment and acted silly, free styled, laughed a butt load....
I mean what was there not to love about that night. I wished my cohort was there.
A human can go many places, but there is no place such as the one you grew up in. Me and my partner, we're broke, like really broke. I realized that all we're hanging onto is some child's dream of becoming rich and famous. But I have faith that, that child will make it, he just needs a little love in this cold world.
