Well, first off, not the eau de trash that is wafting in my window from the sewers… on a hot day not the ideal place to live.
As I flew to Baltimore then drove back, I had a lot of time to think about the things I like about this fair city.
- Lots of variety of [...]
For me, it meant the low tech solution of plain old soap, water, a rag and a lot of elbow grease to wipe down the white (!) railing on my balcony that had collected tons of SF city grime. Then the high tech solution of amping my wi-fi to 5gHz and stop leaching off of [...]
I added 3 iMovies to this site- all local color kind of SF, documentary-style things. Check them out. The 1-minute ones are more “moving pictures” as in studies in neat stills, and sounds. The cab ride is a kind of snapshot of going through town, to music. More movies are at video page on this [...]
The drivers here go up Jackson, then let the break go and do a nifty backwards careen at an angle into the garage. The brakeman here is telling me, “Everything seems backwards, doesn’t it.” Because I was walking backwards - giving the legs a break- and their car was going backwards.
I’m almost ready to release [...]
I met a guy at a conference and he emailed me the other day, “See you on the conference circuit,” and it made me think of other circuits I have in life. I’m currently in the Cafe Circuit. As I walk from home on errands around downtown and North Beach, there are a few cafes [...]
I’m recovering slowly from being sick, and strangely one or two things really stood out as what I miss most about being healthy. How, when you’re healthy, you don’t really think about your health. I mean, you do, but not as #1 important thing going on in every moment– that self-consciousness about your body [...]
There’s a list of things I never do that I want to do. before you move, you end up doing them all in one week.
- practice the cello (I rent one, now I need to PRACTICE)
- go to yoga at the Italian American Athletic Club (every time I walk by I write down the time, [...]
I would usually write little posts about all these things, but in the lazy person that I am I’m consolidating into one “random bits” post. Makes me feel caught up.
WordCamp 2007
I only managed to catch 3 sessions- a bit of the User Interface one, which some reported was the best talk, Matt’s “state of the [...]
Something about last night’s pub trivia was magical. I got there at the same time as I’ve gotten there last four weeks (I’m compulsive, I know). 8PM, to get a table. I chatted with a guy at the bar, then saw some people leave and swooped in on their table, beating out other folks waiting [...]
Mikey pulled on his jacket and headed to the stairs to get his car from the parking garage. He had Beth’s list in his hand- the list of the final few suspects that converged with his own list, determined by real detective work.
It took him 30 minutes to get to Cole Valley and [...]
