i made it to Ojai! i am renting a room for the weekend in a house. it was a little awkward at first, but the couple that own it are so nice and very interesting, open and friendly. I have spent a lot of time chatting with them since i have gotten here, and i like them a lot. They are a little younger than my parents, and she is a master pottery woman, and he is a very calm, gentle man who fixes restaurant equipment. My room has a fridge, microwave, and toaster oven, nice closet.
There is a young guy in the next room who is into music and thinks he is going to be a famous rock star by the end of the summer. he thinks very highly of himself. When i came in yesterday, he told me i could not make any noise because he was recording something, so if i heard the singing stop, i could then run out of the house. Um- ok. I was very quiet, then it stopped, and quietly as i could( my boot made some obnoxious sounds on the way out) i walked out. Then Karen- the owner came over to ask me something, and he came flying out and looked ready to scream. but saw Karen and just gave a dirty look as i went out the door. EXCuuuse ME!
I checked out a bunch of places- one was 250 feet in total. for $800. it did have an awesome pool, but it was so small and painted neon green. The lady said she did it cause her friend who was there before was depressed! There were a few more that were ok, and one i loved, but the guy was in vegas for the weekend- so ill meet him tomorrow. And see a few others. one girl i called had rented out the room already, but said to call her next week so we could meet for coffee, since i;m new. So that was nice. Once i have a place, and can unpack my trunk,. i can go to interviews. but those clothes are really packed deeply inside the back of my car!
