Walked around Hollywood Today
So, today, I talked around Hollywood.
That was interesting. I passed by Improv Olympic West (iOwest), and saw that the cast of MADtv does improv there Tuesdays @ 9pm, so I might to see that. I also passed by the Pantages, and saw that as a great opportunity to get to see Wicked. That is, when I get the money, heh.
The nice thing, is that I can walk to the theatre, so I don't have to worry about parking, which is good. Granted, it's really not that expensive to park over there. $8.00 on some of the lots is just fine.
Still, I am enjoying the town, and seeing what there is to see. Granted... there is a whole lot to see, and I have just scratched the surface.

Settling In
I've printed maps of the area, and tomorrow, I will probably swing by a book shop, and by a Thomas guide to the Orange County, Los Angeles Area.
My first impression of the guy I am living with, was slanted a little bit towards the ucky side of things, but we had a talk, and things are much more relaxed and friendly than they previously seen, so it's all good. I'm happy, and more comfortable now. The not so good first impression was also in part, that I had arrived a little earlier than expected. So he did not have time to set everything up as he wished. Still, it's all good now. *smiles*
I went to the Beverly Center mall today, and it took a short bit to get used to the parking, but it was all good. I also found a Wachovia bank in the area, so I can deposit things again. It's a small pain to get there, but it's all good.
Still, I want to get a place near my work soon. Essentially, it's a 45 mile drive to work as it stands. In an Atlanta sense, it's like driving from gwinnett county to the airport, and then driving halfway back. Yeah, it's that far. I will have to be driving really early on the day, to avoid the dreadedful traffic I keep hearing of.
Tomorrow, is shopping for food day, and getting organized. This should be fun.

Even more pictures
Hey y'all. Goto: http://picasaweb.google.com/marcio.cali I put new pictures there. You can see what I saw along the trip. I will try to do a more comprehensive thing later. Also, I will try to post the little sound clips that were recorded with the photos. Not all of them have it, but is still want to post it on the ones that do.
Ok, sleepy now. Even in this time zone it is rather late.

Job starts monday
So, my new position, will officially start monday. This should be a fun and interesting learning experience.
Over the next 4 days, I will try to get acquainted with the city, and also try to find a place to live. Granted, I can't really full on do that, until I have received at least my first paycheck.
*crosses fingers for early paycheck*
