A few days ago marked my 3rd year of living in lovely, crazy, wonderful LA. I can't believe I've lived here that long... yowza! I think I'll commemorate the momentous anniversary the same way I did last year... so here you have it:

Three Years in LA by the Numbers

  • Number of apartments lived in: 3 (1 month in Hermosa Beach, 23 months in Miracle Mile, 12 months in Los Feliz).
  • Number of plays/musicals seen: 13

  • Number of jobs I held simultaneously for a brief period of time: 3 
  • Number of days before I realized I wasn't a super-human and quit one of the aforementioned jobs: 2

  1. I can think of a few other categories to memorialize your CA time to date: how about number of visits from your dear mother, number of church community groups, number of star sightings, number of visits from Mary or other special friends, and number of red carpets. Also, the trip to SYTYCD was not with me. Maybe next time...
