i'll tell you where the fuckin' trader joe's is...

long story probably not really worth telling but, after crisscrossing the city - palm springs - a few times we finally found the trader joe's supermarket only to find it closed at 9 pm...it was 9:12 pm...we just needed a healthy snack. fuck it. we went back today and got some shit to put in our newly purchased target cooler bag.
the plane ride was uneventful, which i suppose is good...i was, indeed, in first class but really, it's just the amount of room there should be anyways, it shouldn't be special to actually be able to be comfortable and not pressed against your pane neighbour. the food's a little better too...
i met shauna at LAX and we were away to pick-up our rental car, which of course cost more than what i had bargained for on-line...fuck it...whatever - they get ya coming and going - that's part of traveling. we headed right out of town and towards the desert. we got into palm springs around 7 and had a little look around that included the trader joe's fiasco. we settled in at the palms grove hotel - deluxe, and watched a little bad tv while eating our goods from ralph's market - we were really living it up.
this morning we hung around town, got some shit, had some bad coffee, failed to find a breakfast spot instead opting for smooties and then got out of dodge. we headed towards the salton sea, slightly southeast of here. the woman at the tourist information centre had actually never heard of it...

check it out...

it's an interesting place...
afterwards we headed back into palm springs, where we are now - actually at a coffee shop not unlike delany's on denman called KOFFI...ok, the coffee is not bad.
we're gonna find a little dinner later on and maybe meet-up with a friend who is down here right now as well..or go to a movie, or nothing...probably nothing.

more later....
