The Real O.C.

So this is my first out of town blog posting and I must admit...feeling a little gay. Sitting here in Huntington Beach in front of a computer. Seriously, Shouldn't I be out somewhere spending money, tanning, waxing, and making others feel insecure about themselves? Not at all...those are all stereotypes that are personified on television.

Ok, so you've seen The O.C on television, but I find the people out here to be nothing like that at all. Oh, sure, people here have money, emotionless faces, plastic bodies and think that Starbuck's is a charitable organization. However, unlike the lies that are spread on the popular Fox program, I have not yet gone to rehab or been punched in the face by an angry outsider. Oh, and no one has been shot either.

In fact, the people here are very kind. While on the streets they continue to hand me money and spare change. Maybe my Old Navy jeans have caused them to mistake me for a homeless person. Whatever the case, I'll take their money.

Also, it smells pretty damn nice here. Salt water and money....I swear the meeting of those two scents is like the perfect storm. Of course I miss the smell of construction...
