ONCE upon a time, it was Viva's birthday. We woke up at 7:30 in the morning and showered. We walked about a mile or so to catch the bus and stopped at a liquor store on the way to get some lemonade (Viva) and iced tea and cigarettes (me). We took the bus to the green line and from there, took that until we got on the red line. We stopped and shared a pretzel at the metro station before meeting up with CrystalGeezer and Barney. Because he's a gentleman, Viva sat in the backseat without having to be asked. The 3 of us had a nice little tour of LA, visiting Morrissey's old home before going to the Grove. We had an amazing lunch.
Geezer enjoyed a nice brunch and coke.
While I had a veggie burrito and Viva had a chicken quesadilla (Viva's meal is barely pictured).
After that, we headed over to Amoeba... From there, we went to the world famous Cat And Fiddle. I had the bread and butter pudding while the other two rapscallions had apple crumbles a la mode.
Barney was getting pretty tired, so we hopped back in the car to head home.
But then I got the great idea that we should all spend $15 to go inside the 'Museum of Death'.
What a waste that turned out to be. While leaving Hollywood we passed some Amish folk singing hymns. Sorry, I don't take great pictures.
We finally decided we should go home to have Viva's birthday cake. This made Viva and Barney very happy!
Everyone enjoyed a nice large slice of cake that came with a rather odd cupcake on top of it. We talked about Morrissey for awhile (what else?) and then we decided to call it a night. Geezer, Viva and I shared a nice group hug.
THE END.
