Finally got to Seattle. The landing was a bit dicey: turbulent decent through clouds, brakes skidding on the runway. A Christmas miracle! |
Flight canceled as SEA is snowed under, so back from SFO. Hoping to fly from OAK on Southwest tomorrow, but would cost twice as much. Boo. |
Sorry, don't mean to be gloomy, just tired and stressed over traveling. But snow in the mountains will be fun. So happy holidays, people! |
Virgin says my flight will be on time, but with rain here and snow in Seattle, I'm skeptical. And of course phones are down in Silverton. |
Called an old friend in Pacifica, he's setting out crab traps from his kayak tomorrow morning and invited me for dinner at sunset. Epic win. |
Pot roast, a good book and a bunch of virtual hugs worked their magic. Thanks for that! Making a big dent on todo list, off to post office. |
Laid off, broken up, not sure where next month's rent is going to come from, much less health insurance or savings. Time to make pot roast. |
The cupcakes are disappearing seconds after being set out at CupcakeCamp - picked clean like livestock crossing a river flush with pirhanas. |
Best birthday gift? A visit to the DMV to replace my now-expired license! Maybe Santa will leave some collection notices under the tree. |
On a porch swing as the sun goes down sipping homemade lemonade and reading the new Walter Mosley. Barbecue plans for dinner. Life is good. |
@victortrac taught me how to ride one of the Segways he borrowed. Zipped around Hyde Park like I was G.O.B. From Arrested Development. Fun! |
there's a Thrift Town and a Goodwill at Manchaca and Stassney. Former is organized better, latter has better finds and is a bit cheaper. |
Woke up to a damp but otherwise splended morning in Austin. Coffee, then yum cha, then open galleries on the eastside is the plan so far. |
@eveb Looking forward to snapping open my first copy of your fishwrap while waiting for the Muni. I'm certain you'll do The City proud! |
Called T-Mobile customer support, awesomely nice woman in Beaumont got me a new phone and told me all about the weather in East Texas. Win. |
@raquelita made me jealous. She visited the new Momofoku: http://tinyurl.com/5ugmbn I did eat deep-fried pickles last night, so there. |
So bummed, the Kaiju Big Battel in SF tonight got cancelled. I'm guessing the evil machinations of Dr. Cube and his henchmen are to blame. |
@glenda I have to say, covering Rick Astley songs karaoke-style in the Richmond is the hardest of the nerdcore. Rock and roll at G3! |
Having started David Allen's Getting Things Done, I'm inspired to GTD -- in the World of Warcraft. Those monsters don't kill themselves. |
@jonnodotcom by that calculation, I'm an expert late twentieth century American television programming and creative uses for Top Ramen. |
