Well, counting the days until classes start again. Both sad that my summer is coming to a close and excited about the upcoming semester. I have three classes that I am really excited about:
1) Constitutional Law I - I get to finally understand how fucked up our current administration is, and from one of my favorite teachers too!!!
Back in the Bay...too tired to make it out to the Lovemakers' record release party tonight, but I trust my roommate, mikemac581 is representing the household adequately. I have a ton to do in the next few weeks, and classes start back up on the 13th. Hope y'all are well.
Up in Humboldt again, and having a great time. The annual summer party was a success, and now I am just trying to enjoy the sunshine and outdoors as much as I can before the summer ends and I have to go back to school. So I had better get off of this blasted computer and get back outside!!!
Fuck, fuck, fuck...I just accidentally logged out before posting my Blog update. So you guys are going to have to settle for the list version instead. Which might actually be better from your standpoint.
Things that I am loving/excited about [listed in no particular order]:
> Internet Flirting/E-(pen?)pals/burgeoning internet infatuations. I must say, I am having quite a fun time in this regard lately, and... Read More
are you young enough that you had the writing section on the SATs? I can never remember when it started.
She's probably looking for an Aprilia. I've known a few people who've had them, no one close to me. First off, tell her there's very little chance she'll regret "becoming a member" of the SFSGs; all they really mean is that she should join the mailing list (they ask you to fill out like a ten question thingy about what kind of bike you have/want, where you live, blahdeblah) and then you're free to ask questions of the group...which is better than just expecting the mod to answer them because she might not know, but someone in the group will. So, yeah, tell her it's painless, tell her there are lots of people in their 40s (and older), lots of people who have just asked questions and never come out to an event, etc. She can even leave the mailing list once she's gotten what she wants (I feel like I'm being patronizing, which is totally not my intention--I'm trying to communicate that the mailing list is probably a lot more helpful than I could be, and not at all burdensome.)
THAT SAID, tell her to check craigslist if she hasn't already. I think Scuderia here in the city is the only shop that sells new Aprilias; I don't know whether they do used, but they're super nice there and would probably point her in the right direction. The two "main" scooter shops in the city are SF Scooter Center and First Kick, which I know do used but I don't know if they do Aprilia, and then there's Rockridge Two Wheels over on your side (again, besides Vespas I'm not sure what they carry or whether they deal in used bikes).
Thanks!
And yay for you on all that awesome stuff you've got going on lately too. Very cool. I shall reply in more detail once I'm not behaving so much like headless poultry, I promise. It's been a while, and I'd love to catch up.
Until then,
Wow, I have so much to blog about, I don't even know where to begin. It has been a phenomenal couple of weeks, with my trip to PDX to see my sister, and then my trip to SD where I had the good fortune of staying at this house for 7 nights. I got back from SD on Wednesday night, and got to hang out... Read More
I looked for a google image of "rock hands," because it seems that's my default response these days when someone tell me something good (yes. dork.) but they were all really disturbing.
So, hurray rocking life!
