  • I know I'm late to the party, but Instapaper is a longform junkie's dream. 2012-10-10
  • No sympathy for cyclists seeking "rights" after 1 ran over Juan Carlos' paws on the sidewalk. Big ups to the Muni riders who helped calm him 2012-10-10

It’s hard to make the good things last.

I like music. I’m not a constant iPod-wearer or compulsive album-buyer, but I like music and I like it even more live. Concerts have played a pretty integral role in my relationship with Brian, and going to them has always been something I enjoy.  We tend to go to one or so a month, more in [...]

Recent Events, part 2.

So after about 6 months of not taking personal or vacation days, I decided to choose last week to do so. It was the week after which I had 3 days off for the wake and funeral, so, yes, I had 5 days off in 10 days of work. Shush, you.

I went up to the beach [...]

Recent events, part 1.

I’ve been lucky in my life to not have been too surprised by death. Minimal tragic accidents, no swine flu, no suicides- we mostly get cancer and old age deaths in my family. Passing away has never really sneaked up on me, and last week was no exception. My mother’s father, Grampy, died after a battle [...]

Score!

Michael Clayton, $5, Target. Oh, George, you brilliant legal [...]

Back in action.

Internet,

I missed you over the last 2 weeks. It’s been so long since I felt your warm, binary embrace. I’ve been in touch with you here and there, but for the most part, we’ve been separate for a while now.  Lots went down while we were apart, funerals, vacations, naps, crippling stomachaches. I will sit down [...]

Fashion Advice

I bought a pair of skinny jeans last night. I was peer pressured by the millions of girls (and boys, now, weird) that now wear them. I saw a pair of black ones at the Gap and I thought, yeah, those might be all right. They were. They’re black denim, with sort of riding pants-esque seams [...]

If I were still in High School

Taylor Swift would probably be my favorite guilty pleasure. Not that she isn’t now, I just kiiiind of wish I could have legitimately put “You Belong with Me” in my AIM away message. Poignant and to the point, that [...]

Not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their Facebook

Perhaps, had MLK Jr. come around 40 years after he did, his famous speech may have gone that way. I’ve been social-network-site-ing for about 5 years now, and several facts of the matter have emerged. Among them is the item that there are people I do not like strictly because of their Facebook existence.

I used to [...]

Methinks

I might try to get my hands on a copy of the Darjeeling Limited today. I feel like watching Adrien Brody slouch around like a skinny Charlie Brown. J’adore [...]
