maybe i was 10 or somethin when i had this watch... for sure it was in 84 maybe early 85 because
i don't remember having it on during the olympics when they were being held in los angeles.
anyways my dad's girlfriend at then time gave it to me for my birthday..
i was totally anamored by her. she had so much class so much style... she didn't shop
at the Glendale Galleria, but at the Beverly Center, Melrose and on the eastside in silverlake like
at the old "soap plant"..where by the way k. oshima worked during that time...that was before
she was the chef at Gorky's by the flower mart....later k. oshima would be my boss some
15 years later...saying she remembered me commin in with my ma, and tellin me
to "be carefull" with the stuffs . Anyways my dad's girlfriend lived in this really nice house
in south pasadena and when i would visit i would go through all her crazy magazines and
eat the oranges from her tree. she had old copies of wet and interview magazines and others
that i cant remember. she a black bob which now reminds me clara bow...i was the first person
to have a swatch in my school. made me feel special.
