Back from California

[caitri]

We got in at 2am today. Then I went to work at 9. That was fun: grande mochas make the world better.

So it's insane how awesome Californai is. Utterly gorgeous. Beautiful climate. Real cities. Yeah.

I went to City Lights Bookstore and bought a tshirt and an obligatory of Howl. Well another one anyway, reproduced to look like the original pamphlet. It's cute.

We also went to a random "Antique Paper Show" which was really postcards, photos, and miscellaneous posters and scraps and stuff. Random but entertaining.

Am applying for a scholarship to Rare Book School next year. Fingers crossed.

I loved it too (especially the good, good god(s)--I WISH we had organic markets like that available here), but I felt pretty strongly that I wouldn't want to live there. Which is interesting, because when we went to DC in April, I was ready to pack up and move as soon as we got home.

I liked City Lights muchly, too.

Good goddess I know the feeling. They had bagels and Thai food!!!!!! And, and, TRADER JOE'S!!!!!! *cries*

Seriously, I think we spent something like $130 at a Trader Joe's and then $30 to get it all home, and were all depressed we couldn't transport frozen goods.
