Magic & Memories!

I woke up on time today, thanks to Violet calling me. We had plans to go to the Vintage Paperback Book Faire in Mission Hills today. I am soooo glad I went! I got to talk to Connor of Conlan Press and hear many amazing stories about Peter Beagle and the literary industry. I also got to talk to Peter Beagle about his stories, where he is from, his dad, life lessons, childhood friends, music, and more! It was really amazing. I also met a new friend: Branko. He looks like a cross between Cillian Murphy and my sister… 🙂

After the faire, I went home and passed out. I was exhausted. I then edited some photos, then got ready to head to NoHo to pick up Greg.

Greg & I went to Hollywood & Highland, said hi to some friends at Koji’s, then met up with Violet & Jason to go to the Magic Castle. I forgot my ID, so I had to wear a “I’m the Designated Driver” bracelet. Hilarious!

Once inside, Violet & I convinced the ghost piano player to play Bon Jovi for us, then Elton John. After entertaining ourselves with Irma (the ghost), we went into our first magic show of the evening: Paul Green. I was his guest assistant! That was the most amazing “Up Close” slight of hand I’ve ever seen!!! Then, we hung out with Jake & Dale for a bit. Dale owns two Ihops and Jake did some amazing magic for us!

After that, we went into Micah’s show, which was awesome and fun! He is a great man and magician! After Micah, we went back to the “Close Up” room and saw Ivan (from Spain). Violet was his guest assistant. Another amazing show!

On the way home, I talked to Kyle. He had such a great time playing with 10 Years! I am so happy the show went well, but I knew it would! He’s having a great time out there, but I miss him and can’t wait to see him tomorrow!!!

Right now, I’m editing pix and watching Futurama! Great weekend!
