L.A., miwaLyric, and Q.Ledbetter vs. The Moth

Moth attack!

I just shaved for the first time in 4 days.  I'm back to my boyish somewhat-good-borderline-average-good looks.

So, I've been away from home for a little over a week.  I went to Virginia and then I went to California, returning last night (more on that in a bit).  I got home at around 2am Tuesday morning and once I opened the front door to my apartment I was greeted by the largest moth I'd ever seen in my life.  This thing was huge.  It was like a mutant.

So, Mutant Moth and I had a short battle.  I tried to kill it quietly (like the ninja), but I have two roommates who were sleeping and when I kill I kill loud.  I decided to let it live and see itself out over night, as I retired to my bedroom.

I awoke 3 hours later to get ready for work and Mutant Moth was still mucking about in my kitchen.  I decided to slip into ninja mode and try to kill it quietly again.  I don't know why I thought the results would be any different.  I decided to leave for work and send Ryan (roommate #1) an e-mail telling him to kill the bastard when he woke up.

I came home from work at 5pm and no moth....Q.Ledbetter wins.

So, like I said, I was in Los Angeles, California from Friday to Monday.  I was there for the VMA's and related events.  I got to do and see a lot of amazing things and meet a lot of cool people, but the highlight was the dinner I had with this lil' lady:

This is Miwa, an artist, poet, emcee, photographer, wonder woman, and good friend of mine that I only just now got a chance to really hang out with in person.  I don't want to go on and on about how great a time I had at dinner and talking to her, because you'll get jealous and never read my blog again.  I will, however, sum things up by letting you know that if she asked me to elope with her, I would've seriously considered it.

Stop reading this blog and listen to "Dear Boy", by Paul McCartney.

.....okay, now come back to reading the blog.

Oh wait.  Never mind.  I'm done.

Bye.
