A Trickle of Consciousness
The following series of random thoughts were inspired by actual random thoughts I had while driving home after brunch with a friend near Hollywood.
1 Why does Robert Downey, Jr. look like Dustin Hoffman in all the ads for Sherlock Holmes? Did he look like Dustin Hoffman in the movie and I just didn't notice? I'm pretty sure he looked like himself. Also, why did they leave the comma out after "Downey"? Hmm. Jude Law is hot.
2. Is "judgemental" spelled with the "e" after the "g"? I'm pretty sure it isn't. Who proofed that billboard? Or could I be wrong? I can't believe I'm going to have to look this up when I get home.
3. I should blog these random thoughts.
4. It's kinda cool to see the Hollywood sign ahead of me while driving along the street. Wait. Argh, why did I drive up Highland instead of Cahuenga?
5. Why do I always take the long way to and from Mani's?
6. Writing in a notebook while driving is not a good idea.
7. I should really update my blog with something more profound than a series of random thoughts. After all, it'll be the first post of 2010 and... hey, a billboard for the "FINAL SEASON" of Lost! I wonder if I am the only person alive who hasn't seen even one episode of the show.
8. There's a The Simpsons ride at Universal Studios? How boring would that be.
9. Oh crap, did that cop just get me on his radar gun? How fast was I going? What's the speed limit on this street anyway? I hate L.A.
10. Does it make a lot of entrepreneurial sense to sell flowers on the same stretch of road as 10 other people, all within 15 feet or so of each other?
11. Seriously, why can't anyone in L.A. drive?

Heehee! Nice list of thoughts, and glad you made it safely home so you could transcribe from your notebook to your blog!
I just realized from your first couple of entries that Robert Downey, Jr., does indeed look a bit like Dustin Hoffman, and he has a bit of the same gravelly voice. Both very talented actors.
