up and down club / Flower Conservatory

friday night, after stuffing my freezer totally full with a *ton* of Trader Joe’s food, caryn, joey, and i went to the Up and Down club for this new monthly club night. the night was ok. didn’t really spend much time dancing or anything. instead i spent most of the night kicking it outside w/ the smokers. Afterwords, we went back to joey’s house to drink some more. oh yeah, on the way there we stopped by jack in the box. space is so tight in the city that fast food places can’t have drive-thru windows, but people still want to eat food late… so they just have an outside walk up window. like a drive-thru, but on foot. i dont think i’ve ever seen that at a fast food place before. anyways, we ended up staying up till 6 am at joey’s house looking at old photos from *years* ago. it was pretty crazy..

the next day, caryn and i went to the flower conservatory. it was hella cool. they had a ton of different kinds of orchids. orchids are so damn crazy and intricate. they look like some kind of weird alien species. the place also had these crazy lilly pads that are supposed to grow up to 8 feet across and hold up the weight of a full grown person!! unfortunately, the ones there were only like 3 feet across or so, but were still pretty cool.

saturday night i tried to continue working on my mobile. unfortunately, it looks like it totally wont work. the glue is not strong enough to hold it together, and when i tried to pick it up, the whole thing pretty much crumbled in my hands. ugh. oh well….
