When Eli Met Elvis
My friend An and his wife and 16 month old baby Eli, visited The Hotel Careyfornia this past weekend, and needless to say, I couldn’t take enough photos of this adorable little munchkin:
The last time I saw An was at his wedding a long time ago, as this photo will attest:
We went to Palms Thai and Eli got to meet Thai Elvis and woo a little girl:
He’s been singing since 1957!
I think Eli better get used to this reaction from girls!The rest of the weekend consisted of a Golden Globes party (I won the pool again) and Din Tai Fung (again) and Avatar (again) with Kazaf. It seems I’m a creature of habit.
I told his parents that it would be tantamount to child abuse if they didn’t leave him in Hollywood with me. Think of how famous I could make him!!
I dare you not to say “Awwwwww”!
The 101 freeway was empty yesterday morning at 9 as I snapped this shot from my sunroof
The clouds rolling in over the San Gabriel mountains. We’re having an El Niño week, so rain is expected
If you live in LA, check out www.fallenfruit.org/, it shows where all the free fruit is for the picking!
Before going into Avatar for the second time
What’s he pointing at? LOL
I wish I could specialize in photos of fathers holding babies!
Nothing better than leftover dumplings!I had an all day management summit for work today with the other vice presidents. We ordered sandwiches from Domino’s as it was raining pretty hard at lunch time. I love their website. It tracks your order right down to who makes it checks it and delivers it!
Thanks Pedro and Jose! LOL

That’s a really cool website! More places should pick that idea up.
Wow, that site is kick-ass. And Eli is going to be quite the ladies’ man.
Wow! That’s a really cool website. I wish we had it here. The little kid is so adorable~~ awww
@Roadlesstaken - @wherethefishlives - @Got_Takoyaki - Are you guys talking about the fruit site or the Domino’s site??
Domino’s site :P hahahaha!
@CareyGLY - Well, they’re both kick-ass, but I had no idea Domino’s provided such a cool service. Maybe I’m just easily impressed…
@Got_Takoyaki - @wherethefishlives - Yeah, I was mesmerized by it during the meeting…I kept giving my colleagues updates on our lunch. LOL. Pizza Hut better take notice. The new Domino’s sandwiches were delicous too!
Carey, you must have an angel by your side, kids just love to hang out around you! :P
Was that the Thai Elvis at the Palms Restaurant?
Hahaha the kids’ love story is cool. hahaha they are cute too. it is time for you to have a KIDDYfornia. hahaha
I haven’t ate at Palms for years. I remember Elvis hahaha. Free fruits say what! (:
he is a cutie to be sure! FINALLY got to see Avatar – what an awesome flick!!! i may consider seeing it again too. peace, Al
There are so many things that I love in this post that I don’t know what to write about!
Eli’s going to be a little heartbreaker. Is the 101 normally a clusterfuck of cars at nine in the morning?
Awwwwww! He is so very cute!
@CareyGLY - Yes, definitely the Dominoes one. Never heard of that before.
@CurryPuffy - Thanks Gary. Yes, it was Palms Thai :)
@genamus - LOL,,,Kiddyfornia. That can be my day care center. Love it!
@aliceandrandy - Yep, when fruit hangs over a public easement, it’s free for the picking! :)
@pukemeister - See it in IMAX. It’s even better!
@Dezinerdreams - What a sweet comment. Unlike mine to you of late. Sorry. Tough love. :) Hope you’re well. xo
@p4nd4k0d14k - Yep, the 101 is one of the most congested freeways in LA. It usually sucks!
@stevew918 - I know, right? He and Colin would be fast friends!
@Roadlesstaken - You should order something from them and take a look, it’s pretty cool!
@CareyGLY - The closest one of those is 100 miles away!
Kids are so adorable…..why do they have to grow up to be manipulative bitches and jerks?
That’s customer focus there at Dominos. hahaha
@CareyGLY - That sucks ass.
@c_est_la_vie_mon_amie - LOL, I’m hoping Eli doesn’t grow up too soon!
@p4nd4k0d14k - What does??
@CareyGLY - That the 101 is so busy all the time.
@p4nd4k0d14k - Oh, yeah. Well, welcome to LA.
ryc: I don’t know if a woman making more than a man is a recipe for disaster. The disaster lies in the person’s attitude(both the one making more and the one making less)
ryoc: Smallville huh? I used to watch that when Lana(Kirsten Kreuk) was on. But since she left, I have no motivation. :)
And I have no shame in the shows I watch. I know they’re kinda girly….and sometimes trashy, but soooo good! hahaha
@c_est_la_vie_mon_amie - While of course you’re right about the person’s attitude, most men are hardwired to not have that attitude. This is one of the rare times I actually agree with that bitch Dr. Laura. LOL. Men are biologically programmed to be the hunters and gatherers. That’s why we’re stronger. Women are the baby machines, and have wide hips for this reason. LOL
Kristen Kreuk huh? It sounds like we both watch Smallville for the same reason, if not the same people. 
Actually though, I’ve always loved the Superman mythology: http://careygly.xanga.com/664958826/superhero-sunday/
and the show really honors it well.
a second round of avatar? the dizziness from the 1st viewing was enough to last for hours. a friend of mine had to get up to excuse herself to the bathroom in the middle of it just to throw up. needless to say, she didn’t come back in. guess we both just not a big fan of 3D experience.
@rudyhou - Really? I don’t like the old 3-D, but this new technology is pretty amazing. I’m legally blind in my right eye, and it still works for me. The old 3-D just used to give me a headache!
i guess some of us just not used to the 3D experience.
Baby pics!!!! Definitely one of my favorite subjects.
@ElusiveWords - Thanks…he’s pretty irresistible!
OMG that Eli kid has the CUTEST pout evaaaaaa!!! LOL
@Paul Dinh - He is a doll, isn’t he!!?? Thanks Paul!
