We went to brunch this morning with a friend. I got raspberry French toast. Mmmm. Brian’s deep dark cup of hot coffee was ever so tempting, but I drank another cup of tea. The cold has already crept in. September is supposed to be warm here, but I guess it’s holding off until October. Yesterday […]

Is the song playing right now. I love how fucked up all these minor chords sound. Sometimes when I listen to Unwound and Justin’s not really “singing”, more like speaking instead, I can remember what it sounded like when he talked to me. But only for a second. It was a very long time ago, […]

It’s day five of no coffee! Headaches are fewer. I miss coffee. But I love green tea, and I feel like somehow I am doing the right thing. I feel like maybe I will sleep more deeply. But I am having strange dreams. Had dinner with Tamara tonight. We went out for some middle eastern […]

Today my coworkers and I did some volunteer work at the SF Maritime Museum at Aquatic Park. The weather was good, though windy, but it’s always windy down there. It’s near Fisherman’s Wharf, a part of the city that locals never visit unless they are dragging their tourist friends/family there. Which I have never done […]

homestyle!

One of the coolest pieces of artwork I ever saw was made of mac and cheese boxes. It was slightly larger than an average-sized door, and took up a big section of wall. I can’t remember where I saw it, unfortunately. Anyway, it was nothing but the cut-out fronts of macaroni and cheese boxes. No […]

Finally, a summery day here in SF. Just in time for September, so, right on schedule. Tomorrow I will be away from my desk all day. We have this two-hour business meeting (zzz) in the morning, then all afternoon my coworkers and I will be at our (mandatory) volunteer session at Aquatic Park. This is […]
