Santa Monica Trip


I was back in Santa Monica hanging out with Lauren this past weekend. We went to the Ivy and STK restaurants, the Getty Museum and the Rose Bowl Antique market. We had a quality "star sighting" as we saw Emile Hirsch (Into the Wilderness, Lords of Dogtown) walking in downtown Santa Monica. The Getty Museum was wonderful - we saw this Van Gogh painting there called the Irises. Lauren had that same print on her wall for years, so that was fun. I will be back there again later this week to move her home to AZ.... that probably won't be as much fun! But I am looking forward to having her return. She did enjoy her internship with MTV.

OK, sooo?

Spill it, about Emile. Did you go up to the guy and attempt to speak to him?

He's gorgeous in person, as I know. His eyes are adorable.

Gosh, no. My daughter is way too "cool" for that, so we just followed him for a block or so (at a safe distance) and left it at that. He didn't seem to want to be bothered. He is such a cutie...

Does Lauren read your blog? The cutie is the guy in Camen you want to fix her up with!

Isn't seeing this Van Gogh in person incredible? I took one of my friends to the Getty for her birthday and when she stood in front of the Irises painting she cried, it is her absolute favorite.
