Good morning from NYC! I've gone from #LArain to #NYCfog. Sure hope that's a landing strip...

My word, Los Angels, what is that bright glow in the sky?! ☀️ #larain

OK, so who's going to NYC for #BSIWeekend? Looking to meet up!

In the #forgotten80s, before it was a TV series or trendy, Melrose Ave in Los Angeles was really alt / punk. Here are some places I still miss: Aaardvark's Industrial Revolution The Burger That Ate LA Retail Slut Vinyl Fetish Posuer Wacko* Warbabies *still around but not on Melrose

Turn off the faucet now. We're good. (all of Los Angeles right now) #LAWeather #LARain
