I think I might have just named her.<br \/><br \/>So good morning\u2026 Magic Mountain!! It\u2019s been ages since I\u2019ve seen your intestine twirling rollercoasters. Every Mother\u2019s Day my friends and I used to go to Magic Mountain. Why would you leave momma hangin\u2019 on her special day? Because the park is a ghost town! No moms want to go have their brains rattled by steel coasters. They want to go to Disneyland which is redonkulously over crowded. So every year we\u2019d call our moms from the park and then go stuff our face with cotton candy. Hey Ma! Happy Mother\u2019s Day! It was such our little secret. My mom had to admit it was a good idea though. Ha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Today\u2019s goal? Get to my parents&#8217; house as I\u2019m hella sick of motels and their damn muffins in a crinkly bag breakfast. Although I do need to make a few quick stops on the way through town. Hey look it\u2019s 11am! In-N-Out is open. They make the best breakfast burgers. I mean it\u2019s just a burger but still. First stop in town is the Getty Center to see a docent friend of mine, Lee. She provides a guided experience to school children who visit the center on field trips. Ugh. I screwed up our day though because schools were out of session and I was behind on my schedule. Nevertheless it was nice to poke around the travertine halls again. The amount of miles I pushed Xavier around the galleries in his pram would be extraordinary. It&#8217;s not surprising how astute he is at analyzing art now. After the ride back down in the very 1977 space train I needed to get over to Pico and Sepulveda. Pico and Sepulveda. Pico and Sepulveda. Pico and Sepulveda. IYKYK. Zankou Chicken being the exact destination I\u2019m headed for. I\u2019m meeting Doug for a quick lunch. As I parked on Sepulveda a robot delivery was coming down the sidewalk and I was honestly shocked to see one coming the other way when I got out of the car. As seen in the above video. The reaction to the second robot was actual surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><a onclick=\"window.open('https:\/\/chasethelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_4527-scaled.jpg','','width=422,height=800')\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/chasethelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_4527-scaled.jpg\" class=\"alignright\" width=\"350\" border=\"1\"><\/a>Thanks little robots for the sideshow entertainment. Alright, time for some Zankou, it&#8217;s been a long time since I shawarma rolled. Future Chris just remembered the great storage unit trip of 2021 or whatever and the last stop in Burbank was Zankou. That&#8217;s the time when I opened the back of the truck and the load had shifted and half of it fell out while papers were blowing down San Fernando Blvd. Auntie Em!! Auntie Em! All my friends turned towards me and gave me that look of well I&#8217;m not going to go get them. So while I chased those down my friends repacked the truck. Ugh. Anyway, oh chicken tarna wrap how do I love thee and your magic garlic spread. I\u2019m still kinda full from breakfast burger but whatev right? It\u2019s vacation. Nice to see Doug even though he steered me wrong about the chocolate factory! Dammit Doug. Okay L.A that&#8217;s all I have time for today I&#8217;ll be back up shortly for some deeper dives in the coming weeks after I get some rest.<br><br>Hey Siri use ChatGPT, are there any used camera stores in between West LA and Long Beach? Okay, Paul\u2019s. I&#8217;m going to try and get a lens for the OM-4. And damn did I score. $65 for a 28mm! Nice prices Paul. And now we can shoot! I super lovey dove that camera. And thank you for your enthusiasm for Olympus cameras. You&#8217;re a fine film connoisseur yourself, aren&#8217;t you? <br><br><a onclick=\"window.open('https:\/\/chasethelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_4533-scaled.jpg','','width=422,height=800')\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/chasethelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_4533-scaled.jpg\" class=\"alignleft\" width=\"350\" border=\"1\"><\/a>I was actually kind of late now because the camera shop was so far out of the way. I also had to drive through Long Beach so I went and pointed at the Queen Mary. I shot a lot of &#8220;Hey!&#8221; photos for my Instasham account. Go look at that above and tell me nice things. Then of course San Onofre with the infamous &#8220;Everything I see reminds me of her&#8221; reactors from Naked Gun. It&#8217;s decommissioned so someday they&#8217;re not going to be there and the joke will just fade into history. Then the gridlock came. What the hell San Diego County you&#8217;re awful. Where is everyone going? It&#8217;s always like this and people&#8230; I have a Big Gulp inside me. I&#8217;m prio man! Let me tell you, being able to see a rest stop but not be able to get to it because it says it&#8217;s 20 minutes away is the longest mile ever. It&#8217;s right there! gah I survived. Welp, that&#8217;s it for today. Chilling with my parents now on a patio watching the sunset. They&#8217;re happy I&#8217;m here and I&#8217;m happy to be here and yet another amazing mexican dinner in ma belly. Might be a day of rest tomorrow. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh hey, I got a lens for Black Belle! I think I might have just named her.
