i taped it to my guitar for good luck on my trip to Hollywood to meet up with this chick to wwrite some music. She works on a radio show or something. anyway. i just realized that i arrive on st patricks day. haha. a little synchronicity to lead the way.
Ive found that when i started following moments of synchronicity Things generally end up working out.

Anytime I go through major life changes such as moving, new job, etc.. I usually get strange synchronicities like that. I just assume it means i'm doing something right....

my typical recurring synchronicities:
Being single for a year or 2, getting desperate cause I tried with many girls I truely want to be with, then I meet this new chick whos just 'ok' and suddenly 2 other chicks I really wanted decide to tell me me they are interested.
Then Im fucked cause im invested with some other chick, and the outcome is normally this:
A) I leave the chick I'm with and the other girls changed their minds about being interested
B) I stay with new chick, lasts for 3 months, then I'm stuck wondering what could of been if I went for option A.
Long story short.... forever alone lol

Exactly. When synchronicities pop out right before you it's like the Universe is saying "Here, this is all for you!"

well so far its been a bust. i havent got to play music with her but twice for like less than an hour. For some reason she wont make the time even though i spent 9 hours on a train and a bunch of money to get down here. I even got us a gig the first day, all we need to do is write the set. It sucks man.
We did figure out we have fundamental differences in philosophy, she wants fame as a goal and for me fame is just a perk, the iceing on the cake. i did meet some really cool musicians that dig my sound so i think i might stick around for a bit longer to see where that leads and try to do the gig i set up, even though earlier today i was ready to leave because she has been blowing me off to do whatever stuff she does during the day.
I dont dig Hollywood at all. this place sucks. its so fucking fake. hopefully by the time i leave this trip will have been worth it.

not to discount this thang, but I've found so many four leaf clovers it's stupid
I even found a five leaf
looks it up, it's not common, but not nearly unheard of
It was really cool one day, though, because I literally opened a car door, looked down, and was all, "oh look, a four leaf clover"
I also gave one to a lover, and it was all down hill from there

it kinda played into that, a bit
I'd dessicated it, then gave it to her, but then someone walked through all suddenly, bumped her, and caused a leaf to fall off
really took the piss out of giving her a four leaf clover

thanks man, it means a lot. i put a lot of myself into it. The girl that i came to jam with is finally working with me. We are working on a song, we are gonna do a rough cut in a bit ill post it up when its done. She doesnt think she has the time to commit to it in the long run, but if the music ends up being good enough then i dont think she will be able to say no. we shall see.

she wont make the time to write the set with me. i get here after 9 hours on a train, spend the first day im here walking around Hollywood alone. I get us a gig, where the dudes are basically like PLEASE come play here, they even have a baby grand piano, and she can play man, but she wont make the time.

I would dry it out and then smoke the "luck essence" of it, draw it deeply into your lungs, and kill a hooker and take her life-force. You'll be unstoppable! Eye of the tiger! ATTACK!! YOU ARE GOD!!!!
I don't even know where I was going with that. Good luck in NY though.

i havent left yet so the story isnt finished. i woke up today ready to go home and couldnt find my jacket. After looking everywhere for it Lily found it in the dumpster. My keys and phone were gone. This was after i tried to leave yesterday and i couldnt because I dont have an ID so they wouldnt give me my ticket.
So today after realizing my phone and keys are gone i went to that cafe that i had talked to about playing to jam. I got there just in time as it started raining shortly after. As i was walking up i saw the specials sign out in front and it had a clover on it. Its called the Irish coffee house. i hadnt even realezed that, even though ive been talking about it for a week. I come to Hollywood with a broken guitar that has a 4 leaf clover taped to it, arrive at the very beginning of St Patricks day, then by mid day i find a place called the Irish coffee house that wants me to play there. crazy. 
so i get there and jam with the owner for a bit, i walked in and i could hear him playing to the music on the speakers. he was upstairs so i went and chatted and played for a bit. he was taking a break so when he went back to work he told me that i was welcome to play there till they closed. After a bit i went to see the tattoo artist that i should have gotten my flowers from and asked her about fixing it. Soon as this thing heals im going back to her.
I then wrote a verse to a song ive been writing about seeing the signs in the sky. Then he asked me to leave cause they were closing to do some roof repairs. Its a brand new place only open for 3 weeks so far. Soon as the sun comes back im going to be playing there to help drum up some buisness for them.
then i walked back in the rain and took a shower.
The universe didnt want me to leave hollywood yet apparently.

4 leaf clovers only work if you find one by accident and pick it yourself. And supposedly they only bring you one great lucky thing then they are not magic. Or least thats the irish myth.

to be honest my views on luck are entirely karma routed. Basically to what u deserve and dont by how much of evil minded person you are and what you create. Usually luck is returned in threefold in ill ways or good ways. But thats just what i believe and experienced.
