Well friends, it’s official. Love & Loathing Los Angeles is FIVE years old. I cant even type one freakin sentence without feeling a bit emotional. CHEERS TO 5 YEARS I remember the day I called my mom, so excited to tell her I was going to write a book about life in Los Angeles. I...
It’s ALMOST that time. That three to five day weekend time, where summer officially ends and the elicit fall wonders finally begin to take hold.
