anyone ever read the book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day" as a child? Well I did and it seemed like my day at work today was straight out of the book. I should have listened to my stomach this morning and called in sick. Instead I misheard some instructions from a supervisor, which made me take longer than expected on...

yesterday I made a crucial discovery. for leisure time when alone, sitting on my front porch in the early evening and reading a good book, is actually more fun than any computer game or the Internet. If only I'd made that discovery sooner. but then, it wasn't summer until now. so cool.

the book is called "Off the Map", published by CrimethInc, and is...

Happy Bastille Day - Vive la France!

if you're in Santa Cruz and like house music, join me in celebrating at the 418 Project tonight for FLOW with Doc Martin and resident DJs. It's $10, 10pm-2am, at 418 Front Street. It will be off the hook!

And today was another slosh-ball game, though we were soundly defeated, 23-11, this time frown But we're still up 2-1...

It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot...
