Tonight after dinner, Brian and I met up with Christian and Christina at the Mint for some rockin karaoke fun. I thrilled the audience with my rendition of “Dreams” by the Cranberries (holiday appropriate) and enjoyed most of a very, very boozy Irish coffee. Brian and I went to a matinee of “Bad Santa” this […]

I’ve been rejected yet again for a credit card. I applied online and received the rejection notice yesterday. It was for a United Airlines card through Bank One, so that I could earn air miles. This really infuriates me. I already have a Visa card that was issued to me through my bank four years […]

So last night I shared a car and drove around running errands. I am still not so used to driving, though it’s improving. I especially hate driving in the SOMA, with all the one-way streets and freeway-only lanes. I got stuck in one of those last night and had to merge three times to the […]

The lyrics to Eddie Money’s hit single “Two Tickets to Paradise” are a very thinly-veiled allusion to his secret life as a would-be suicide bomber. Yes, Eddie was in ISLAMIC JIHAD!! It is all clearly spelled out below. Got a surprise especially for you, Something that both of us have always wanted to do. We’ve […]

Today I had grilled cheese and avocado and tomato soup for lunch. I accidentally dipped some of my hair in the soup, which then landed on my t-shirt, like a brush dipped in paint. I am awesome. I finished “Life of Pi” on Saturday. It’s a very quick read, but not light and fluffy at […]

It’s been a nice, relaxing day indoors. Outside it’s still cold and sunny; cold and shady in the apartment. I finally got it together and uploaded a whole bunch of digital photos from July up to the present.

Oh lord, slimjims are gross. Please let me never eat another. Good beef jerky, well, that’s totally different. Went to Gonzalez HQ today to drop off a donation and pick up a couple posters and a button. The place was buzzing with activity and excitement. It was great. I sure hope he wins. I really […]

A helpful reader (see comments in last entry) informed me that the creature we observed on the sidewalk last night was a Jerusalem Cricket. Grotesque and obscure beast, no? And the average size of those things can top 2.5 inches. Wow. I am really enjoying the book I am reading right now. Also I couldn’t […]

Last night we trained for two and a half hours on a dark tennis court, under a moonless black sky flecked with stars and passing planes. It was freezing cold and I dressed far too lightly, meaning that I spent almost the entirety of training shivering and uncomfortable. Class was difficult and confusing, especially the […]
