Spring & Thwarted Gardening
I come from a long line of thwarted gardeners and farmers. Maybe all Swedes are like that- our weather or circumstance is never quite good enough to really explore all o the plant varieties and sun that you want to. I visited an East Bay Nursery last weekend and managed to pick [...]

Movie Update
Threw down some brewskies with producer last Sunday and she was feeling bad at not working on the spreadsheet. “All you have to do,” I told her, “Was tell me to write. That’s it!” She got into it and promised she would nag me. I got a few pages written the other day- Thurs [...]
Amtrak
This is the station right across from work. It’s one of those things I go by every day and never really look at or recognize. Sure, the first day maybe but after that, nada. A lot of these trains are very pro-American for some reason. I mean, isn’t that a bit of a overdose when [...]
Medau, Madame
Much like someone who says “I love this song!” or “I love this movie,” or “That is my favorite restaurant,” when everyone within hearing knows that they love every song/movie/restaurant, that is how I feel about Medau. It’s my favorite street! Next to Pacific, Hyde, John, the list goes on. How cute, how small, [...]
What I do is Order
New acquaintance, at dinner last night, looked at me oddly inspired, as I ordered, and said, “You should get a job, doing that.” What did we order?
shrimp curry (panang)
spring rolls
papaya salad
chicken something (I did not order it).
Not that sophisticated of me, but I guess it was the speed and concensus.
Where it’s still the Civil War
I love the Warming Hut (above) in its spare, 1800s looks. I watched a film made by KQED of the Barbary Coast Trail last night, and appreciated the pre-1906 construction. Not sure when the Warming Hut went up, but I’m sure it’s around when Fort Point, and/or the other military [...]
This has nothing to do with my blog, but I have to write it down to remind myself how incredibly odd it is. At work, I got this in my inbox.
My dad’s train ended up getting in last night at 2 AM… For those of you who remember his arrival last time, you [...]
This photo reminds me that there are sunny days, or were, in January
Sunny Days, So Long Ago
The rain: all the radio stations talk about it, and everyone you talk to talks about it. Not so long ago, the days were sunny, and we had tons of droughts no less. Just putting things into perspective.
Los Gatos [...]
Here’s a little temple of heaven on a wet and wicked Tuesday.
Racism
Couldn’t sleep last night, and in the throes of daydreaming and anxiety thoughts, had an overwhelming concern that people would think my movie is racist. It’s good to question these things, it’s true, and I think when you talk about stuff, you get very [...]
