Beaches

i woke up alongside the ocean at 530 am
drove to malibu

walked around the pier
then played in the ocean

it was cold but waves are awesome

for lunch i finally got in and out burger
there must have been 15 cars maybe more
in the drive thru line
it blocked up the entire mini mall parking lot
they had a dude in the parking lot taking orders

i ate inside
ordered it animal style
it was a good burger but the fries were awful

then drove to ventura beach
found a lot of sand dollars

talked to chris on the phone
for a while which was good

drove to mcdonalds to use the internet
this one had its insides gutted
so i had to use it from my car

i was so sandy
and it was hot
it was cool on the beach
but really hot just a few blocks away

was tempted to get a cheap hotel
near the walk of fame
in hollywood
not too far from my concert
i could leave the car and walk around all day

the few hotels in the area with a pool
had horrible reviews online

considered a japanese hotel with all this weird stuff for 99 bucks
but you had to pay 30 bucks more to park your car

bookit.com had a mystery hotel for $64

i called and asked the guy if the pool was open
he said yes
i asked how far it was from the address of my concert
he said 21 minutes

i booked it
the ride from where i was said it was a 24 minute drive
well thanks to la rush hour traffic
i got there an hour later

and saw the sign that said from may 2011 to nov 2011
there was no pool because of construction
in fact this morning at 9
hammers will wake me up

i was not happy
wasnt the hotels fault
i called it book it

it was on the phone was over 45 minutes
once on hold for over 20 min
i sent an email from the customer service website
and i think that is the only reason i was picked up
because i got email back from them about the time they answered
saying oh we see you were being helped

in the end they took 15 bucks off
and 25 off my next booked hotel

but this is what has me ticked
i asked the lady at the hotel what there normal price was
she said 62 dollars

lying stinking evil book it.com
what a bunch of bastards

it does feel good to have the stink and salt washed off me
would have been nicer to swim a little

so tomorrows plan is to find my venue
find a place to park
and spend the day bumming around the walk of fame
