There are many things I love about living in L.A. The three W’s aside (word to Kendrick), running into friends at events and around the city is one of them. Unlike NYC, it’s rare to run into people you know on the street. I’m reminded of various scenes in Nelson George’s Brooklyn Boheme, where he ran into different people while walking around Forte Greene. With the vastness of the Los Angeles landscape, unless there is an event, we often have to be intentional about seeing each other.
