Writer’s Blog
I just saw what is possibly one of the lamest custom license plates ever. The car was a black 528i. The license plate read “528IGUY.”
Some of you may have noticed (others probably have not… ok most of you have not) that I haven’t blogged in a while. Maybe I just have writer’s blog– ur block. Actually I think it’s just sheer laziness. On several occassion I thought of something interesting/witty/clever/funny to write about but, alas, I didn’t.
So how about a life update? I’m currently in LA working at MySpace, a partner to SimplyHired (where I work at). The people here are so LA they make me feel like I’m not from LA (granted I did grow up in the ‘burbs). I’m surrounded by tats, piercings, goth, band t-shirts and silicone. Perhaps the employees are a good sample of the kinds of people you expect to find on MySpace.
My commute sucks so my life for the past week has either been at the MySpace building in Beverly Hills, in the car, or in bed (with a wee-bit of gym activity here and there). Driving sucks. Freeways suck. Ugh. There’s something about LA that’s feels like home and like a place I don’t know anymore. Perhaps this is what my father meant when we were in Pusan (his hometown) the last time and he said, “I don’t recognize anything, anymore.”
I guess that’s life for you. It changes, it moves. You move and you change. Things just don’t stay the same…. except for the 528I Guy. You know that he will always be, now and forever, the 528IGUY.

Sounds like you need a yoga break. Or maybe an icecream sandwich. Bah ha ha hah. (Evil laugh). We miss you, Peter. Hurry up and push that release out.

I agree. Any person who defines himself by his worldly possessions must be so lame.
Hot Date: So, tell me about yourself…
528IGUY: I drive a black BMW 528i.
Hot Date: Um, that’s very nice…
