The “This Is What It’s Like To Live In L.A.” Thing
October 23, 2002
What can I tell you? I’m in corporate-wanker/marathon-trainee mode this week, not rock star mode, which is far less cool than, say, touring or recording. Yeah, I have my guitar with me, but I haven’t played it since Sunday (and then, with little enthusiasm).
Mostly, I’m doing the “This Is What It’s Like To Live In L.A.” thing, waking up, running by the ocean, working, going home and quietly hanging out. My blood pressure’s pretty low, that’s for sure. But — weather not withstanding — L.A. seems to lack the grounding, the reality, and the urgency, of New York City.
I just wanna’ sit on the beach and stare out to sea here.
