JoJo's Pancake House

I knew last night was a good night. I woke up this morning with an ugly pair of pink fuzzy socks on, my make up from last night slightly smeared and the stamp from the bar still holding strong on the back of my left hand. Good stuff. Last night it rained in LA. While I usually like to hole up when it rains, I had other plans.

Maryland kids and I swung down Wilshire until we reached the ocean, and then made our way through the night of Santa Monica to Main Street. I liken it to a Mill Ave back in Arizona. We grabbed dinner and drinks at the Library Alehouse (for those of you in Arizona - this Library is not like THAT library on Mill!) and then rain through the water to World Cafe for more libations.

Anyway, I made pancakes this morning. I burnt quite a few since I can't seem to handle our gas stove, but other than that, I'd call 'em tasty. Dad would be proud.

Since I get thousands of hits to this site (catch the sarcasm?), I know everyone must be wondering why I changed my blog title and background color. "Why did you do such a thing, Jo?" you might ask. "Because maybe I didn't want it to be JUST about LA," I'd answer. It bothered me, the whole "Goodnight LA" thing. Maybe I thought it was cool at first, but maybe I was trying too hard. And then every time I'd post, I'd think "Oh, man, it's got to be about LA." Now it's just about Jo, with a whole lotta LA.

Rest of the day: walk around Brentwood and work. It's a beautiful day.
