Too Weird. Got this from Des (The Boobs). Gee Thanks. I feel dumber.

You know when you have those days where you’re really stressin and you need another set of ears to listen to your rants over coffee? Well thank god my office is next door to Oliver Peoples / Mosley Tribes.

Say hi to Jasmine. She’s sharp and pretty. She also bbms me whenever I’m having a solo lunch over at Poquito Mas. She messages things like, “I see you.” I think that’s kinda strange and hot. Ha!

Say hi to Patrick. He’s cool and dapper. Patrick occasionally invites me out of the office for a walk down sunset where half the time we make sarcastic comments on the people on the street. We think WeHo is the shit…ok…really you hear my sincerity when I say that? Patrick is one of the reasons why working on Sunset is doable.

Peep!

Is it just me or has the days, weeks, heck even months passed far too fast? I dunno when it is when I get bouts of creativity bottled with angst. It’s been a while that I’ve been able to write forthwright. Over the years as I went from a gumshoe reporter for Sportswear International and wgsn.com to later working as a company man for Hudson Jeans, I feel I’ve had to put constant layers on me for both professional and personal reasons. I launched Mr. Kim Says as a medium to express what I was going through in my personal life as Evil Monito the magazine went on hiatus. I brought Evil Monito back late last year as a means to re-enter the online realm and provide an alternate platform and arena where we could host and conduct thorough discussion of the world around us. I’m very satisfied with the progress of the site and where EM is heading. Yet I cannot help but wonder about it all. About the role of media, especially the internet. It scares me. I want to strive for a better more personal direction for Mr. Kim Says and allow myself to be more transparent and really connect with you who visit my site. I want to hear your stories and get inspired. Expect a few more candid hellos from yours truly in the next few weeks.

And if I’ve haven’t said this to you all before, Thank You so much for taking the time out of your day to read my blog. I truly appreciate it.

Patrick (Mosley Tribes) and Siki (Helmut Lang) popped in to my office for a quick visit. I wish I could’ve been a better host but I really couldn’t chat. Print week at 944 is always stressful. 

Went on a hike in Elysian Park. The trail was nice.

President Obama is unlike any other president we had. He speaks the people’s vernacular without sounding awkward. What can we say, our President got soul. Take a listen.

BJ came by for an interview with Sylvia (Evil Monito). BJ is an amazing talent. I had a grand moment being able to witness his story of how he came to sing. A true artist and a dear soul.
