I really wish the world champions San Francisco Giants coming to town to play against the Los Angeles Dodgers on opening day today would be a big April Fools joke by commissioner Bud Selig. I rather have us play any other team this today aside from those motherfuckers.
I say that cause 1.) I really don't like the Giants. 2) The last these fucks play us on opening day.... I'll leave you to figure that out since that incident overshadowed the Dodgers season, and 3.) There's gonna be more cops than fans at the Stadium, so it looks like Magic Johnson and the rest of the Guggenheim owners are paying off the LAPD to make sure no foolishness happens, despite today.
But this season should be a good one. The New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox are coming here for the first time in about three to four years since we don't play them that much and I have two vouchers to go to almost any Dodger game I want this season, yet I still haven't claim them. Looking forward to going back to the Ravine again this year.
As far a the month of March, I'm kinda glad its over. Aside from turning 25, that month has been awful for sneaker releases. The only decent pair of shoes that dropped in March was the Air Jordan XIII retro "He Got Game" edition,cause it was the same colorway that was featured in the film He Got Game since Spike Lee, who directed the film, is also an Air Jordan enthusiast. The month of March also went by quickly. Maybe its cause I've been working everyday.
Now getting into Easter Sunday yesterday, alot of places were closed. I had to take a foreign couple from the Beverly Garland hotel in the North Hollywood/Studio City border to the Santa Monica Pier which I got 60 bucks for that trip. Went I got back to the Valley, I stopped by at Mulberry Street Pizzeria in Encino to get some lunch there. As I walked in, I saw Jay Leno inside with some other bloke to my surprise. He had a old 1920's style car parked in front of the restaurant on Ventura Boulevard. It was my first time seeing him in person, but I didn't talk to him or ask to take a photo of and with him. I lost respect for Leno, aside from his knowledge of automobiles which is the only thing cool about him, after 2009 when NBC (the ones who deserved the blame) decide to bring him back to host The Tonight Show again after his successor Conan O'Brien got screwed over by the network.Otherwise, if that shit never happened, then I would've left Mulberry Street Pizzeria with Jay Leno's picture and autograph. I mentioned it before in one of my previous blogs, so check that out. Anyway, he left with his friend and when he started his car, the exhaust was loud as hell. Nobody went crazy after him, cause he was just a regular person to me.
Later on that night, I made a unannounced visit to my homegirl Amber's place to spend Easter Sunday with her and her family since I was there last Easter as well. We chilled, talked with her friends and her family members and I took some photos of her niece and nephews for them. Many thanks again to Amber, Clarisa and Alex for the hospitality as always. Here are some of the photos I took last night.
When I left to go back to my pops' house, my brother's car, which is a 2001 Ford Taurus if that matters, that I was driving all of a sudden stopped running. I was scared as fuck thinking that it had something to do with the starter cause it wouldn't ignite, and the Taurus just reached 190,000 miles. The car stopped at a neighborhood street near Roxford and San Fernando Road in Sylmar. I was ready to use my emergency savings to call a tow truck to tow it to my other place in Sylmar but then I decided to walk to the Chevron on Encinitas and Roxford about 3/4 of a mile away from where I was at and fortunately, my brother had a 2 gallon gasoline tank in the back of his car. So I walked over to the Chevron, fill up the 2 gallon tank and walked back to pour some gasoline in the car. When I started it, it then started running like normal, which was weird cause the gas reserve on empty light didn't show when I was driving and it wasn't completely on Empty in the dashboard. With the car driving now, I drove to another Chevron in Granada Hills and paid 50 bucks to fill that shit up to a full tank of gas. I guess pretty much fate decided to do some kind of practical, unorthodox April Fools prank, even thought it was a few hours early, but its all good though.
Well, that does it for this update. Thanks for your time reading this and go Doyers.
