In startling contrast to yesterday’s high-profile death, I am truly shocked and saddened to learn that Yolanda King passed away this morning. My personal encounter with her was brief and formal, but I remember her to be a gracious soul who inspired me and made Dr. King’s Dream come alive in a new era and [...]
“One belongs to New York instantly, one belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years.” -Thomas Wolfe This may seem incredibly silly to some of you, but I’ve always thought I was kinda missing out on something by never having been to New York. People all around me have talked about [...]
Okay, so it’s time I did a rundown on my vacation, with tons of picspam, of course. I’ll break it into two parts for my own sanity if nothing else. The flight from San Francisco to Washington DC (via Chicago) was okay, but a little rough. We encountered a lot of turbulence over the plains [...]
I am home. Hard to believe that this morning I was on the Empire State Building, strolling through Central Park, and watching my first actual Broadway show. I’ll write more, but right now it’s midnight on the left coast, and I woke up at 7:30 on the right coast, and couldn’t sleep on the plane. [...]
Gadzooks! Tomorrow is my 3rd Livejournal anniversary. How time flies when you’re having fun… and thinking up ways to use the word “gadzooks!” Photos from DC – unedited, untitled and raw for the moment. I’ll (maybe) fix them when I’m back home. I’ve got my NYC mix ready for the train ride. Yup, I’ll be [...]
So, I’m sitting in a delightful cafe in DC using the free wi-fi (rather than the expensive hotel wi-fi) during my few hours of downtime. I’ve barely had a chance to do anything but sit by the pool and start reading Rant by Chuck Palahniuk after getting in last night. NYC friends – I’ll be [...]
I think I’m packed for the DC-NYC trip. I leave early tomorrow. I’m packing a bit light, only taking what I really need. Sadly, half my suitcase is taken up by the suit I’ll be wearing for about 5 hours Thursday night. I’ll need to find a laundromat sometime on Thursday because I’ll be recycling [...]
I went the the How Weird Street Faire today. It was a scorcher, which is an odd thing to say in San Francisco, but temperatures were in the 80s and there wasn’t much wind. I’m pretty sure I got a sunburn. Anyway, the How Weird Street Faire was really cool, but I wish I’d been [...]
So I’m been reading some of the fanboy wank around Spiderman 3 and I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about the dancing and the hair. One person wrote: “The dancing the dancing! OH GOD. *cries* … And Peter’s dancing/hair should have seen even less [screen time] (if any at all).” The dancing didn’t bother [...]
Spiderman 3 was awesome! Like the first two movies, it’s the personal journey that’s important. Revenge, addiction, forgiveness, choices, and a healthy dose of musical theatre and dance numbers. I did have one problem, though. Peter was acting like an incredible ass long before the alien symbiote appeared. That would have been okay, but it [...]
