Handsome visitor seeks date for drinks/dinner - 32 (Downtown)

I'm a single guy in town on business. My trip out of town got delayed a day. So no plans except for what I hear is Carmageddon. Sounds bad, eh? Live in the PNW, from the east coast and don't really know this town at all. Would love to go out with someone here to see the town and have some fun. I'm cute, 5'10", HWP, white, job-holding, car-having, clean-living and grandmas love me. Kind of a catch, and single too!

You should be smart, funny, cute and also have a job or something that gets you up in the morning. How about we meet for a drink and see how we like each other. Maybe we'll be interested in getting another...

are you following @I_405 on twitter yet?

Made it (on 2nd attempt) to the Dick Library today, and I was never so happy to see a grave. (There was a racist docent there too, what a surprise.)

I'm doing the downtown architecture tour til 12:30, then hopping over to Hollywood Heritage Museum for a quick visit, so figure 2:30ish.

I'll be there too!

curious about this new mohawk bend joint in echo park

Looks weird! Horrible name! What is it? Did I spy some kind of velvet rope? A friend told me that building used to be an awesome movie theater.

Actually maybe forget my skepticism. Serving beer AND food until 2am!! Finally!

the owner's other place in burbank is good; don't see why this new one wouldn't be.

could be fun!

i'm moving to thai town tonight! which means approximately 150% more late-night pad see ew in my life!

The space itself had been vacant for 26 years and was totally destroyed. Keith, who has designed many Hollywood hot spots -- including BoHo, Te'kila and Essex Public House -- is giving it "a very industrial vibe, like something you'd find in the warehouse district in New York."

uh... which one?

What place in Burbank? These are the people that own Colorado Wine Company too?

Anyway, that is a good spot. I suppose all my hopes that it would be revived as the independent movie theater of my dreams are now dashed.

Can I use this thread to announce that I rode Angel's Flight for the very first time just last week? It was awesome, I feel like a real Angeleno now. I also met a woman in Famima who gave me a voucher for a pedicure and offered to make me a custom cheesecake.

What place in Burbank?

you're taking her up on that, right?

no but I have her card if you'd like.

jeal of the pedicure voucher. i need to get my nails did.

Hey, I'm house/dog-sitting through the 24th at a place in Ojai that's kind of like Miley's. If anything's fappening in the city, I'm game.

Sounds like the FAP should be in Ojai.

Come on up--orange trees and backyard couches.

and dinner at suzanne's?

http://www.suzannescuisine.com/

Up for that, or at my favorite place so far (indoor/outdoor, great food and beer):

dammmm, jealous of potential ojai fap

Yeah, that sounds good.

Meantime, Disneyland FAP/meetup/thing was discussed last month at MorbzFAP, so maybe in September sometime? I should also be up again a week from Saturday for lunch.

oh man i am feeling that suzanne's menu

when i was there i had the southwest salad. i recommend!

Southwest Salad Of Three Rices (Wild, Brown And Jasmine), Vegies & Smoked Turkey With Green Chilies, Corn And Feta Cheese

Can I use this thread to announce that I rode Angel's Flight for the very first time just last week?

I was looking fwd to this til I found out they moved it about 20 yards from the old location, and completely lost interest.

Good for you. How dare the powers that be show such disrespect for authenticity, in Los Angeles of all places.

well, that's how I managed to hit most of the authentic places in 6 days.

You must be glad to be home
