Despite a lovely stretch in LA (marred substantially by only an unexpected car-towing at the very end), I'm more than glad to be writing this from a New York-bound airplane. (Even despite the scent coming off the old codger next to me who drank seven - yes, seven - small airline bottles of cheap red wine.)
A few things I learned on the LA part of the trip:
1. No wifi = no productivity.
2. Jess and I are waaaay to old to do multiple 'pre-game' tequila shots before a night of back-to-back business drinks.
3. Los Angelinos can't drive worth shit.
4. Especially when it rains.
5. I no longer get even vaguely star-struck.
6. While you can't make good sushi from bad fish, you apparently can make bad sushi from good fish.
7. Despite the national infrastructure efforts of Whole Foods, California produce still wins.
8. Though, conversely, while LA may have more Kosher delis than New York, they all make crap pastramis on rye.
And, resolved: Still seems like a nice place to visit, but I still wouldn't want to live there.
