Happy 12 of 12!
This month's 12 of 12 was much more exciting than last month's 12 of 12 for me. (Visit Chad for all of this month's participants. He was shooting for 75.) PARDON THE NAME-DROPPING LINKAGE AND RANDOM STORY-TELLING. I figured it was a good time to get everyone up to speed a bit.
Oh, and click any of these photos to see the larger version.
Y'know... I think I might just have the most kick-ass life available for a dollar. So glad I bought it. Totally worth it. Hope your 12 of 12 was as much fun. Yippee!

I love your 12 of 12 today. Lots of fun. And it made me want pie.
Thank you for your generous photo-hosting offer, but I ended up not taking any pictures today. I'm housesitting and I literally didn't leave the house once--spent most of the day writing at my computer and now I'm watching the Deadwood first season on DVD (on episode 3 now). Wasn't much to take photos of. AND i slept through the bonus photo. Next month!

Fun facts: I had no pie (not gluten-free; bummer), I participated in 12 of 12 when I didn't leave the house all day long, and I predict Blogger will let you post photos again next month.
(My predictions are fun facts.)

I was going to participate, but my computer screen was really boring. I suppose I could still do it. Since I didn't do nothing but sit at my computer all day, I only need to take one picture to "represent" that and I still would have an hour to take my other eleven pics. We'll see.
I like your fun fact/predictions.

Oooh! You should totally do it, just like this chicky. You could even draw!

Couple a things. First, Archie looks soooooo enthusiatic in that pic! Hilarious!
2. I LOVE Richard Riehle!!! Yay for you!
3.
4. Wow, that's some cheap gas!!!
5. I was just saying to Mike Saturday how I just love the Jacaranda when it's in full bloom this time of year!
6. I drove by the 360 building today and thought, "What's with the glove?"
7. Thought about you again today when I parked in the loading zone and your awesome tip about being able to park there after hours! Teehee!
8. Heee! Friday's the big day! Awwww!
and finally...
9. LOVE YOU!

Oh, sis sis sis sis...
1. Wasn't Archie just as pleased as punch at 7am? Hee! Can you see HIS sister sleeping ON ME in the foreground? HOWL! These animals!
2. Thank you for the RR yay. I actually met him on the SAME DAY that I met Joel and Trevor... and now here we are 10 months later putting these guys together in a movie! Yay!
3.
4. I KNOW! I couldn't believe we found $3.19 gas--but of course it makes sense that it would be at our old ARCO. What was really wild was looking at all of the other 12 of 12 photos from around the world. Our gas is SO high.
5. Some of my favorite colors!
6. Great minds, baby!
7. *giggle* Love it!
8. I KNOW! And Quinn will be here for it! Of course, I have a date with Babes McPhee and I'll be leaving the boys alone for the evening, but that's okay. We'll have anniversary time soon enough. ;) Hee!
9. Love you TOO, sis! XXOO

2 pics spittin distance from Lipp's place & no shout out? Ah well, I did get a nice phone call from you today : )
And, your pic of that new groovy 101 K-town sign is precisely 2 blocks east of my 2:30 am pic.
oops, forgot to post last night

Love the condom building pic! I haven't been in that area of town for a couple of weeks, so haven't seen it yet. The building was empty for 5 years! I would love to have a loft in the building!

I remember House of Pies from the 80's! Forgot it was there
As for the Failed meter here is what I learned: you can leave a note AND change and they can still ticket you. The meter folks I talk to say it's up to the meter-person, I have been ticketed even though I left a note and guided them to the change on my wiper, I argued it with the city, and lost - so no more failed meters for me.
Off to Alaska for a few weeks, I rely on all you LA bloggers to find out what is going on :)

drc: Seriously, that's some of the cheapest gas in LA County right now. I'm so not kidding!
Glad you found us too! Yay! Blogs are a happy place!
Lipp: You *did* get a shoutout while we were in the car, because Keith LOVED telling me how close we were to your apartment several times on our trek through the Eastside. Thing is, I've never been to your place before! So, I didn't remember it after Keith said it (and of course I didn't remember at which photo spot he was saying, "Your brother lives over there," and at which he was singing along with the radio but changing all of the lyrics to "Giant chickenhead").
Glad you liked your phone call. Hee!
Dutchimport: Can you imagine what a loft in the 360 Building would cost? Eesh! But, man! What a view!
Fun fact: in 1993 and '94, I worked across the street(-ish) at the Motown (now House of Blues) building for Left Bank Management. AMAZING views. And a kickass job.
Matt: Here's the deal on the failed meter, at least in Los Angeles:
If you park at a broken meter in the city of Los Angeles and still get a ticket, call (877) 215-3958 to report the meter's number. If upon investigation the meter is indeed broken, your ticket will be voided.
Believe me, it's NOT up to the meter person as long as you can prove the meter was broken when you parked there. I was licensed to teach the California Vehicle Code for three years, baby. I know the deal. ;) (At least HERE. It's different, everywhere, of course.)
Have a GREAT time in Alaska! Take (and post) photos for us to see! We'll see you back in action in LA at an audition soon, I'm sure.
Cheers, all!

Wow, I got the 12th comment on Bon's 12 of 12. Is that special or what?
I know, it's not supposed to be about me. And it's not. REally. Honest.
