....and no, I am NOT planning on making any movies. Hollywood is also a great city for musicians.
Relocated here as of Dec.3rd, and I've been running errands and playing tourist for at least the first week. Apparently, the movers threw the wrong box on the truck - the one containing my contact phone #'s for my new friends out here. (My possessions are still in transit.) So now my friends Tom and Jennifer are probably looking for me, and I am looking for them at the same time! Although he's not a member, Tom mentioned months ago that he reads E-Budo once-in-a-while, so I thought I'd publicly post my temporary contact info here:

I may end up staying at the hotel longer than I thought, maybe even another week or two if this keeps up.... That would be difficult on my finances though.
To Jay or Jennifer: I could use some help. Please come pick me up A.S.A.P., like we talked about months ago. I usually never leave the hotel room before noon, and I can be easily found strolling up and down Hollywood Blvd. regularly, or at the indie-film Egyptian Theatre.
To Jennifer: I still love you very much! Are we still on for the Jeff Bridges tribute on Dec.17-18th at the Egyptian Theatre? Don't forget, okay? You have my cell phone#....
For the curious onlooker: my friends bought me a house out here! After not doing really anything for the holidays for 15 years, what an amazing Christmas gift, huh? I can't wait to move in.
Anyway....
In need of rescue,
