I am here.

It's pretty awesome. I waded out into the gulf (they're quick to correct you if you mistakenly call it the "ocean," since it's the west-facing side) until the water was up to my waist. I could still see my feet. Later I swam out about 50 yards to a sand bar where I could touch the bottom. I could still see...

Donate to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

Do it now. Some of these victims are your friends.

And liz phair- I used to respect her AND think she was hot. Now well, I just think she's ridiculous. I've been listening to "Exile in Guyville" a lot lately. brilliant.

If hundreds of tightly packed, sweaty people in a neverending sea of humanity could ever be described as "fun," this would be that time. Of course, I'm sure I wouldn't have had nearly as much fun at Sunset Junction if it weren't for all the people I ran into there, several of whom are good friends I hadn't seen in awhile, and seeing them really...

I wish that I'd made it out on Sunday. It was still great to see you all the next two days, though. SGLA is my favorite part of SG.

I'm feeling lazy about updating, so I've let Shalome do the updating for me. If you want to see what I've been up to, go there.

Oh, I will say, though, that even though I've seen Babyland at least a dozen times over the past 10 years, tonight's show was one of the best Babyland shows I've been to. The other bands were pretty...

Not even the horrible traffic Shalome and I encountered on our way back into town this evening ( 1 1/2 hours to go thirteen fucking miles) could keep this weekend from being awesome. We drove North on Saturday, and spent Saturday night about 20 miles into the wilderness outside of Napa at a house in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of our...

Thanks for your help again smile

There is very little that is much more frustrating than Bay Area traffic. A year of commuting from Oaklalnd to SF every day burned that fact into my brain forever. Glad to hear it didn't spoil your otherwise enjoyable weekend.

Milk Toast.

My mom used to make this for me when I was little. As a teenager, possessing the twin traits common to nearly every teenager in history (lazy in household matters and perpetually hungry), I'd sometimes snack on it, because it's so damn easy to make.

On Saturday, over lunch at a restaurant in downtown LA, not one of the six people I...

geeesh...well if you put it THAT way! Yes, I can definitely meet you guys over there. What freeway will you be on so i can find somewhere close to an off ramp/on ramp?

I'll assume you will be arriving up here in 6.34 hours so I will plan accordingly.

Thanks. smile The first was taken near Sheridan Lake, BC, and the others at English Bay in Vancouver, BC.

I am NOT a fan of such long days... But I only stayed there for a few days, so I caught up on sleep when I got home.
girlblue:
I'm all set, thanks. It wound up that I didn't need as many as i thought I would. smile

So, if you read my last journal, you'd know that we attempted to shave my head with the [admittedly cheap-ass] clippers I bought for just this purpose. You'd also know that those clippers failed miserably, ripping out as much hair as they cut, and forcing us to resort to butchering my hair with scissors, leaving me looking, quite literally, like I got in a fight...

I didn't see this in time, but I would have been happy to pull the culture article. That looks more like a tech story. Sorry.

Your profile picture reminds me of the whispering imps on this webpage. smile

I finally put up a new profile pic.

I figure wearing a Santa hat in July is just silly. June? Sure...but July?






In other news, I'll be visiting San Francisco this weekend with Maxx, rawr_ima_monster, obd, and various other ne'er-do-wells. I can't wait to see all the SF kids again. smile

In still other news, the electric clippers we bought to re-shave...

You know, your post reminded me that I have been embarrasingly absent from most of the groups I signed up for.

By the way, I'm sorry to hear about your hair. Although I've spent the last several years in defiance of haircut-related military regulations, there was a time when I truly, truly felt your pain. blackeyed

You think after all I went through after one bloody mary is enough to stop me from getting royally fucked up with SGLA at zeitgeist?


well. i mean, i will maybe have one drink. or two. over the course of the entire day, of course.

I love this time of day. 5am. The half-hour or so before the sun comes up, when the horizon is pink, the birds are singing, and there's a fine coat of dew on all the cars and plants. The world changes dramatically when the sun comes up. Suddenly there's traffic on the streets, the air heats up, the din of the city drowns out the...

smile thanks so much! it's one of the first journals i sent work off to, so i'm really happy with the response. sometimes it takes years for people to break into journal publishing...i'm making my way slowly through the door.

and i don't so much like 5am, but that's because i have to get up at 6am. and getting up at 6am...sucks.

What a fucking awesome weekend.

Saturday
We went to the SGOC beach party at Balboa. It was great. The waves were big, which was a refreshing change from the anklebiters at Long Beach, since we've got the harbor and the breakwater and all. We roasted vegetarian "italian sausages" over the fire pit, and had great conversation. Jeremy and Joscelyne fell in the water. I took...

Could you link me to that thread, if there is one? I looked for it and didn't come up with anything. I'm too tired.

July 2nd? Haven't any plans that i know of yet (i'll have to ask the missus first). What's going on, eh!?
