Can any LAista or person familiar with said city tell me what there is to do around Union Station. I'm meeting a slightly neurotic family member there this afternoon, and I'd rather we not wing it too much.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Only thing I can think of is "leave", ita. Sorry.
Hey, you said you found a mover. Which one are you using?

Get lost. That's what I did. On the other hand, that's about five minutes from my campus. There really isn't much to do around here that's of the cool variety. Even the rose garden isn't very impressive yet. You could go see the creepy Body Worlds exhibit at the Science museum, though. Otherwise, I'd suggest leaving the area and going somewhere much cooler.

I'm going with Millenium Movers, I think. Everyone looks about equivalent ($65-70/hr, some with 3hr minimums), so I picked the first one with a slot open on my day.
Leave? Get lost? I was already harbouring some trepidation -- is there anywhere to sit and eat or coffee that's not horrible, maybe?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
She has a band? That's hot. Does she sing? I like a woman who can sing. Although I don't know, I'm not really into rap/hip-hop...at all, so much.
She does sing. (I met her when she was in a musical that I designed.) She says she's in a pop group, so I don't know how much rap/hip-hop is actually involved. I haven't heard them, myself.

What's on Olvera? Coffee and the like?
I almost just talked her into coming to Westwood, but her schedule doesn't quite allow, darnit.
