On Monday night I had a surprise visit (okay, so he told me a while ago he’d be coming around the 8th) from Aaron. I had watched three quarters of the Ohio State bludgeoning at the other Aaron‘s house after work. After three miserable quarters I decided to go home. Shortly thereafter Aaron called to inform me that he was turning onto Pass Avenue. Los Angeles was the beginning of Aaron and Todd’s double cross country trek from New York to LA to New York again (I have a free place to stay in NYC now!). The guys were stopping off at famous places and famous faces. In Los Angeles while I was at work on Tuesday they visited Syd Mead and got an inside tour of Cartoon Network. My jealousy grew when they described their plans for the way back to the East Coast. Tuesday night Aaron cooked us all a terrific meal of chicken…stuff before they headed off to Santa Monica to visit a friend of Todd’s (who just happens to do album art for Deftones). The photo below was snapped just before they headed out.

However, the flight was delayed for about a half hour due to a “maintenance procedure” that prolonged our […]
