Oh I dod have damn nice deep dish down town. More on that later...

In little italy

Down in little italy and just got stood up. Not but the person i was meeting but by the gallery she was playing at and dont have her number... Pucky....

Sunset at the park...

Hopefully the camera doesnt wash out the colors too much. Heading down to the mission to hunt tacos...

Tacos Found - Zona Rosa

Well, its over priced and sub standard but... It's passable.

Morning at the bus stop on Sunset

I need a bike...time to check Craigs list

Rush hour

Out rug hunting... Which really does sound like a euphemism that i dont really wanna think about...

Before - boudoir apocalyptica

Oh the horror, this crazy week has yielded only tim to unpack when urgently needed. But today is the day off, much to be done. I still desperately need a chest of drawers but will need someone to help me pick it up. Maybe next week :(

Plus need something up on the walls, it looks institutional in here...

Time for a pot of tea and a little elbow grease (on the elbows not in the tea...)

No luck down town.

Well some luck, some definite maybes at World Market and several places I want to come check out manana. Just getting on the L now heading to West Portal then to the M to hit Trader Joes.

I'm surprisingly tired. Despite sleeping late im feeling a bit under the weather. Been kinda burning the candle at both ends this week. A pot of tea and a nap once home then on to unpacking and cleaning.

Dreary day around the bay

Well a long week of work at the new job is over and I'm finaly finishing up moving errands. I'm waiting on the train here then off to fishermans warf for trader joes and world market (and for the love of jebus new work shoes). Hope fully it doesnt rain too much.

Fishermans won't be infested with tourists on a day like this right???

Sunset on the ocean

From a walk on Ocean Beach after work

Old Mandarin Islamic

Went to this place with Char and Russ yesterday. Sooooo good. We ordered enough for 6 people I think.

New day

I woke up this morning in my new home to the rain comming down and a back yard full of lilys. Wow.

It's wet...very wet.

Well it appears scattered showers means continuous chilly rain...

Emotional on the jetway

I'm here in the airport bar, exhausted and impatient, finishing my likely last bock for a while (yech, it's a ziegen) and feeling such lightness and heaviness at the same time.

It's hard and I'm deeply sad that I'm leaving behind so many friends, loved ones, and my home city for 27 years, but Im also giddy with the bright future I have awaiting me. I can't wait.

I'm also listening to Andrew Bird's "Firey Crash" which may be inadvisable.

So here i am. At the airport bar, having my last bock for a while (only Ziegen, yech) and
preparing to get on the plane.

Vday done... On to California

Well had a great Valentines at Deanna's. Great night, with great people. I'm going to miss everyone so much, but I'm done with good byes, it's time to go.

A little more packing, then lunch with the fam at Gumbo's (yea!) and it's off to the airport.

(above is the dip i fixed at chef Deanna's behest, i was really happy with my presentation)

Happy Hallmarkday

About to pack up the PC for the big move, but had to share these greetings from Blizzard for Valentines day (via Kotaku):




Hope everyone is having a hot lovin time today, but use protection, cause you can't spell Valentines Day with out VD.

And with that unsettling thought, I have boxes that need shipping.

In flux sux

I am trying deperately to stay busy with the move only a week away, but that doesn't seem to help the frustration. Oh don't get me wrong, I have an insane amount of things to do but I am at the point where im just anxious to be gone and getting resettled.

Not much more to say, just have to be patient and keep packing.
