Donna in Hollywoodland

Busy Sunday

There was a new Bible Study starting at Church this morning.
So I got up early to make it there in time for 9:30.
However, there was a Marathon that went right down Hollywood Blvd. How to cross over and get north ?

I finally found a freeway entrance that I could get to.
As I entered the freeway on the entrance ramp, this huge yellow construction Big-Rig thing, was in the slow right lane.
It had one of those big signs that said "Wide Load".
Well, I was speeding up to get on the freeway.
The "Wide Load" driver wasn't slowing down to let me on. He was going way to fast for the slow lane, considering how big he was.

I had to slam on my breaks, and stop on the shoulder.
He almost killed me.

"Just great" I thought, as I drove to church "I go through surgery for breast cancer, just to almost get killed in a freeway accident."
My Breast Surgeon would not have been happy.

I made it to the Bible Study a half hour late. The Stephen Minister was there, and had saved a seat for me. I stayed for church.
After church, there was a BBQ going on.
We walked around, trying to see if they were offering Turkey Burgers.
The lines went out of the church courtyard area, and on to the street.
I decided that I didn't want to stand in line, only then to find out that there were only beef burgers.
I will only eat organic beef.

I ended up having lunch at home. And doing things on the computer.

For the evening, I planned to meet with a group from Los Angeles People Connection
for a free classical music concert at LACMA . It was a classical violinist and pianist.
It felt really good to get out and socialize. I love going to the museum, and I don't go enough.
And I figured I was only going to go and sit at a classical concert, so it wouldn't be to much of a strain.
I have to say that I really enjoyed the evening.
