Slow night

Pretty slow night last night to tell you the truth. After I got off work I grabbed a drink real quick with an old co-worker who was actually in town for the night on business (or so he said). It is always good catching back up with someone you essentially spent all of your waking day with. The guy is doing real well now though, actually working at a startup doing some pretty great marketing work (you'll see his work soon, trust me). After we finished our drink(s) we parted ways, who knows when and where our paths will cross again...

After that I headed over to Tom's house to meet up before the art show. He had just received a package from his cousin studying indigenous movements in Columbia, (a UPENN PHD student nonetheless) that included some coffee that was to-die-for. So we brewed some up while we waited for his girl to get ready to head out to Kai's event. As an aside, I must say theres nothing like a hot cup of joe on a cold night (and it doesn't hurt that this particular night was straight from Columbia!).

The arthouse was absolutely packed to the brim. I'm talking people from all parts of LA were there. Echo park was the place to be. That's not to say other parts weren't represented that night, as BH, WeHo, the whole westside and a good amount of old money (larchmont-esqe) were in the house. Kai's installation entitled "Life is Dead" was something i won't attempt to describe, but lets just say it made you think about everything you've ever done in your life. To say her weeks of hard work were completely rewarded, might be a little premature, but I saw quite alot of people from the art world showing interest (even Katy McAdams from the Village Voice was in the house).

I cut out of the show a little early, about 12:30 because there was some reading i wanted to do, and I wanted to run through some things on a programming project I have been working on. Other than that, like i said, a pretty slow night... hopefully today brings something of note.
