Getting a head start on moving was made easier with with Trader Joe’s being so amazing in giving loads of boxes.  In Los Angeles, I called the Trader Joe’s on La Brea and they put boxes aside for me.

I colored my hair bright red and now I look like Ariel. Not on purpose. I was walking through the cute Los Angeles Koreatown Korean shops on Vermont and Wilshire near the Coffee Bean where I get a lot of writing done and I saw Davinci haircolor which is some brand I didn’t know [...]
