I woke up around 5 in the morning. I had been dreaming of being on a plane, flying back home from Chicago. For some reason the plane was flying low, only fifty feet off the ground, and following the highways. One wing nicked the side of an overpass and we landed in the road with […]

I have NOTHING to do at work right now. There’s a big dumb meeting I could be sitting in on (it’s all-day) but frankly the content doesn’t really concern my actual job. So instead I’m sitting here working up the focus to maybe tinker with my book. The best compliment I have received so far […]

On my lunch break, I took my little 25% off coupon to the Coach store downtown and got this and this. Then I strolled back toward the water, walking on the sunlit side of the road. I reached the street leading to my office and looking up, I noticed this woman walking toward me, eating […]

I think Sasha has a cold or something and I am not sure what to do. He has been having intermittent sneezing fits since yesterday. Apart from that though, he is alert and eating and drinking and active as usual, and since both cats are indoor only, I have no idea how he could have […]

Twelve years ago today, my cat Simon was born. He was born in Berkeley, to a large, marmalade-colored mother, and he had one other orange littermate and two black littermates. I answered an ad for free kittens, and picked him out in July of 1994, when he was about seven weeks old. I have never […]

I know this might sound weird but my favorite chocolate bar is the Trader Joe’s Belgian dark chocolate in the purple wrapper. I could eat that every day, man. And now, the AJ Pierzynski/Michael Barrett brawl as re-enacted in Lego. My favorite quote: “the crowd shouts, ‘Rowand would have had that!’”

Last night I made these stuffed peppers for dinner. They tasted so good. It was a good weekend. Saturday I worked obsessively on the book, and we took a long walk. I always end up walking over Parnassus to Cole Valley though, I need to switch it up and walk all the way to the […]
