Official?

Is it official or not? I'm tempted to say it is, but until the air tickets are actually in my hand, nothing's really confirmed yet. And unexpected things are showing up everyday still, argh!

Anyways, I figure that I should give everyone a heads up, so we can have some fun together if it materializes. Well here it is: I'm (probably) going to LA for a 3 week job attachment! The timing will be 25th Feb to 20 Mar or thereabouts, and I'll be working in Burbank, though I'm gonna have to figure out cheap housing in the neighbourhood somehow.

If you're gonna be in the neighbourhood just holler out! I'm probably not gonna have much other opportunities to be in town in the near future, though I'd like to enjoy the ski season someday haha. Here's an great song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers although I have absolutely no idea what it means:

Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi
Poppa was a copper and'a momma was a hippie
In Alabama she was swinging hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world does your company take me for?


Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbin'on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way saying baby what you gonna
Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45
Just another way to survive

Chorus:

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah


She's a lover, baby and a fighter
Should've seen her coming when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
A little loaded she was stealing another breath
I love my baby to death

Chorus:

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

Who knew the other side of you
Who knew what others died to prove
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true, too sad sad sad

Push the fader, gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it, Up to Minnessota
North Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quota
Down in the badlands she was saving the best for last
it only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast

Chorus:

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

Okay, I can't resist it. I don't like repeating posts but what the heck. Perhaps this is more apt:

We've be on the run
Driving in the sun
Looking out for number one
California, here we come
Right back where we started from

Well, hustlers grab your guns
The shadow weighs a ton
Driving down the 101
California, here we come
Right back where we started from

California
Here we come!

On the stereo
Listen as we go
Nothing's gonna stop me now
California, here we come
Right back where we started from

Peddle to the floor
Thinking of you more
Gotta get us to the show
California, here we come
Right back where we started from

California
Here we come!
