g.i., clark gable, gucci, louis vuitton... i love america

what an interesting time i'm having so far in l.a. first of all, i'm no good after 6pm - the jet-lag makes me a cranky, groggy little girl. second, the ghetto-sans-fab steez i wasn't feeling in france exists here too. (well, at least in santa clarita). i went to swim some laps today in my parents' hood. they live right next to saugus high school. on the street that the pool's at, there were a huge group of boys - some with skateboards, and others standing in the back of huge trucks. when i got to the pool two high school girls asked if they could use my phone. i said, sure. then i asked them if there was a fight about to go down. they said that it's the skaters against the ballers. that is very strange. but then again, i guess that's high school. then they said thanks for letting them use my phone. i said, it's all good. and before they took off, they asked me if i went to saugus high because they'd never seen me on campus.

i took it as a compliment.

after, i went to target with my mom. wow, so this is why america is so cool. i love target!!! i felt like a little kid. and then again, i felt like a consumer again. consuming is bad, esp for jane who doesn't know how to save money. i think i have an illness. like, if i had 2 dollars to my name and saw something at target that was 1.50, i'd buy it, even though it would then mean that i'd be broke and out on the street. ehhh, i'm just rambling now. it's the jet-lag talking.

anyway, after target, i went to whole foods. uuuhhhhhh, naked juices. i hugged the carrot juice, orange juice and green machine jugs as i brought them to the cash register. which reminds me...

my carrot/orange juice partner is back in france. holding it down for the team. i found some photos of mr. eisenhour on my mom's computer, so there. i'm done.
