UnHip LA

Yes, I’ve finally gotten on the bandwagon.  I’m unhip, what can I say?  Here’s my twitter link:

I have a feeling I’ll be tweeting more than blogging only because I often have good things to share but don’t always feel like firing up the laptop, logging into the blog, typing in the small box, spellchecking, etc.   We shall see.  Let the games begin!

Here’s an explanation of what Twitter is.

Haro!  UnHip LA is a blog about finding offbeat and free fun in the Los Angeles area.   Daily Candy, Thrillist, LA.com….this is far less hipper than those sites.  Instead, this little blog, powered by a curious monkey, hopes to help you discover your own Los Angeles, one that is free from the herds and with easy parking. L.A. is a wonderful town, a bit ugly to get around in, but a wonderful town.

How to use this blog:   Some things/events here are time-dependent; others are not.  Browse through the site either by scrolling through it or clicking on a category link.  Also, use the helpful search box.  You might be surprised by what you find.

ABOUT ME  

I am a freelance monkey who’s been published around the block and further. I love to wander around L.A. and find new things to do, places to eat, and writerly hangouts.  I live in the San Gabriel Valley and have a serious aversion to the Wessside, so most of my hangouts are in this area.  That’s good for you if you live here!  If not, venture out to my turf; you’ll love it.  Plus, we’ve got free parking.
