zencuppa and I had a mostly-uneventful flight from SFO to LAX. We waited for a while at the American Airlines kiosks. There was only one man dealing with the three check-in-yourself stations as well as five regular check-in. Fortunately, we had gotten to the airport with plenty of time.

The rest was no problem and we were picked up at curbside by Lee Gold. Thanks Lee! Got to the hotel with only a minor wrong turn. Turns out the hotel was across the street from a mall that was across the street, sort of, from another mall.
( No broken guitars this time ... )

Got home with no trouble. Yay!


Edit: Oh, yeah. For the first time, as far as I can recall, I entered an instafilk songwriting contest. I basically used the rhythm of the words "braindeath" and "hamsters" and did three not-hardly-related verses using different songs ("Starship and Haiku," "Black Lace and Midnight," and "Crimson and Crystal"). Jane Mailander won the contest, David Okamura was a close second ... at least I was in the top ten.

( The song that got me on Cynthia McQuillin's radar was Arise, My Love. )

Thanks Cindy!
