ham fisted theatrics: He walks around Los Angeles eating salads. He's very much his own man.

March 26, 2010

Just outside of Little Ethiopia I see two big black birds dive-bombing, flying straight up and then straight down again, over and over, like someone is throwing them in high parabolas. I drive all the way out to Venice and when I get there I regret not bringing a sweater. At one point, driving back, the sun is not at an angle where it's in my eyes, but I put my sunglasses on anyway, just to have them on.

In my neighborhood, I notice that on one corner the grilles on both the walk/don't walk signals have fallen open like waffle irons, revealing two unlit hands and two sets of dead numbers. Across the street, the ground around a low gray wall is strewn with uncooked white rice, and sitting on the wall, there's an all-black banana. It is like someone was having a ritual, trying to bring to life the little wooden man who holds a sign advertising a special at the pizza place.

On two different days I sit in the same restaurant and eat the same salad. On the first day, the salad has tuna in it and I read the first half of my friend Mina's big article for Fortune Magazine. On the second day, they're out of tuna so the salad has salmon in it, and I read the second half of Mina's article. On both days I feel thoroughly adult, eating vegetables without anyone making me and reading an article about bond market intrigue written by someone my age. To complete the effect, I don't drink soda with either meal.

It's a little impressive, I have to say. I look up to anyone my age who can willingly fork down a salad involving fish. Shudder.
