I had been on the hunt for it down since early summer, when one night I had completely overshoot Van Ness Street on the way to Kirk&#8217;s house for Game Night with some fellow Amoebites. By how far do I overshoot it? I&#8217;m in the hills of Silverlake. For those of you not familiar with Los Angeles topography, go ahead and imagine San Diego. (I think I just spaced it and was headed for the Van Ness in San Francisco.) I&#8217;m listening to <a href=\"http:\/\/kcrw.com\/show\/or\">The Open Road<\/a> on KCRW.

The song helped drag me out of a funk last week, but it didn&#8217;t help me back to Van Ness. It just provided a nice backdrop while I found my own way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, the River Tam notebook gets old quick, doesn&#8217;t it?
