  . . .what a strange but wonderfully fantastical day. . .i woke up really worried about how i was going to get through these four events that i was scheduled to attend and now without my trusty assistant who i rely upon for help, interaction, and companionship on these work things. . .but very unfortunately is experiencing a major health crisis with his father and so had to jet to northern california. . .so i was more than a little concerned to initiate this series of commitments. . .but not to worry, the historic filipinotown farmers market was all right for an extended lunch with lots of familiar company and purposeful strengthening of bonds with latino staff. . .the trip to los angeles theater center for the philippine dance and rondalla concert was great with a good friend and her daughter. .  .then a quick jaunt home to change and lo and behold a call from my nephew who i have not seen for about 10 years, out of the blue and more conversations with cousins. . .although we did have to flake (the l.a. way!) on the next stop at the councilman swearing-in thing at union station. . .i did manage to get a good friend, my cousin and cousin-in-law to accompany mois to the pwc benefit dinner at the first baptist church. . .then we night-capped at the silverlake good luck bar and that was a cool end to a smooth day. . .praise god that my fears of isolation and failure did not come to fruition. . .still sad for my trusted assistant but i did send a hearfelt email and loving energy his way. . .okay sleepy sleepy time now. . .

  
  

  P.S.  PROFUSE APOLOGIES TO MR. SEAN 808080. . .as i should have given very due credit to his wonderful talents as a fabulous photographer. . .for allowing me to borrow the above "angel statue photograph". . .living in this city of angels has perhaps made me lose my more angelic qualities of protocol, etiquette, and kindness. . .so for that i am sorry. . .and i send much gratitude, thanks, and deference to sean. . .mahalo. . .xoxo. . .
