My first day back in LA. So far so good. I took a long walk through Santa Monica where I'm staying, and met up with my friend Larissa for lunch at Buddah's Belly. Then I headed to my old West Hollywood neighborhood for  dinner and drinks with another friend, Lauren. It was great spending time my friends who I miss so much these days. And its also nice to know where everything is and exactly where I am going! It has become my norm to always have a map or to look up where I'm going in before I leave my NYC apt. So, it certainly feels like being back home again. And I'm liking that.
