cafe audrey
I've popped into a place called Cafe Audrey twice this week and while it's a little too far away from the K to call it my office, I've really started to enjoy the regulars and staff.
It's an Audrey Hepburn themed hole in the wall with customers ranging from Yuppie-ish 20 somethings to the local homeless dudes. The owner just lent one of the regular hobos a twenty dollar bill-- that's kinda something for Los Angeles, let me tell ya.
Yesterday I was here when I was throwing together my Britney video (my most popular so far! check it out!) and a homeless man gave me a show with his harmonica and then gave me a talking plastic figurine of Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons. It's still in my computer bag and every time I bump it up against something I can hear him say "EXCUSE ME!"
It's not the Coffee Bean that I've come accustomed to (they know my name there now, it's sad), but it's something different in this city that seems all the same.
