  Dude, it's freakin' gorgeous in sunny California today. It's about 72 degrees, blue sky, not a cloud, slight breeze...paradise. I gripe about the traffic, and sometimes the people are a bit...looney, if you will...but, man, I love living here. When I was growing up, I took for granted how lucky I was to never have to walk to school in the snow (and rarely the rain, for that matter...wait, come to think of it, I didn't actually walk to school, but that's not the point). It's idyllic, lovely, amazing. I can understand why people have flocked here. Ultimately, I would like to live in my favorite city in the world, London, but until I can get there, I am happy to be here. QUOTE OF THE DAY "Love is merely a madness..." Billy-Bob Shaker-Doo
