Only in L.A.

[zacsmom2000]

I was driving to work yesterday morning on Wilshire Blvd and Wilton Avenue (big streets), minding my own business when I see the strangest thing crossing the street in front of my car. I watched a very good looking, well built, slim, muscular man wearing pirate boots to his knees, black fitted pants and black shirt carry his cutlass and casing. I think he literally stopped traffic as we were all watching him instead of the signal light. Wow, that got my engine purring. hahaha I wish I had my camera out. I would have loved to post it here. Yummy eye candy!

Yes, well I have more. I was a work this Monday and something Goth passed in front of my pharmacy counter. I looked up just in time to see a tall young man/teenager wearing a cape with hood that looked like the Dead Reaper. I thought I was looking at a Halloween costume but realized the fabric was too good. It was lined with a beautiful light blue silk material. Now, I know it has been cold but this was too weird. When I finished his mother's prescription, the guy paused in front of me and said good bye. Is it just me or what?

Michi, I know you have a cell phone and it probably has a camera feature -- couldn't you have taken a picture from in the rear where you fill the scripts. What a tease you've become. Julie has it right - lashes with a Whippet tail for you.

I have never taken pictures with my new phone but it looks like it would take time for me to figure out how to use it. By that time, the picture is lost. My camera is in my purse but the purse has everything I need and again too long to find it in time. I will try to keep the camera at ready near by if I think of it. ....Like that is going to happen, eh Diane?

OK Michi, we'll all let you slide this time. In the meantime, enjoy the sights.

I am just realizing my so called sedate, quiet life is not as quiet as I thought. I have had a bad cold/flu this week and stayed a home. I am feeling better so don't worry. One would think nothing could happen if I am home minding my own business. Don't believe it. Thursday night around 6PM, someone rang my door bell. I looked out the window and saw this huge man with a cute Whippet on his leash. Well, I was in my nightgown but I quickly put on a robe and opened my driveway gate. The gentleman reminded me we met last summer on a busy street nearby. He said he had walked pass my house several times and never caught up with me until now. He laughed that he met my housekeeper, cement man, gardener, and neighbor. They all said she's not here much. I told him, what did he expect, I have a job. He has two Whippets and was walking the 5 month old as she is pretty antsy. Big surprise. HA! His other Whippet is 12 years old. Zac and Joy had a lot of fun chasing the young Whippet around our yard. We now have a play date at the local dog park early Sunday morning. I am looking forward to it.

Meanwhile, I was surprised to have so much attention while I was sick this week. My pharmacy offered to bring me medicine and anything else delivered to my house. Since I am nowhere in their delivery area, I was touched by their offer. My nephew came by bringing Tylenol, Jello and soup. He stayed for a couple a hours and installed my Magic Jack. (It works fine if you have a fast connection. You can not tell the phone is not a regular land line.) Another friend offered to come by and bring food. Since he lives one hour north of LA, I told him to stay home.

Thank goodness I rarely get sick but these last few days really brought up my spirits. Who knew? Meanwhile, I have a date with a cute architect for lunch today. No more information.

Glad you are feeling better and have been having such fun and exciting goings-on in your life Hope things go well with your and your Whippets' new friends
