Part IV: Hugs all around
So that’s how we were going to play it. A tall gangly stoner with keys to a Benz, a missing roommate who probably had 12 tattoos by that point, an innocent bystander who probably regretted even waking up that morning, seven hundred thousand hippies, and me.
And we all had to get [...]

Letters From The Bay, Week 12: Hardly Strictly Hugs

A random smattering of things of sorts
I have been neglecting my blog for the last two weeks-ish. I always feel like I should apologize for doing that. But then I always feel like asking myself why it is that I let an inanimate object of the web 2.0 variety make me feel bad things about myself. Clearly it’s just a big [...]

What the swine flu hath wrought
1. A minimum of three posters about handwashing above every sink in the office.
2. Purell stations adjacent to all of the aforementioned posters.
3. An irrational fear of sneezing people.
4. A case of mistaken bodily actions in which a yawn was wrongly accused as a sneeze and a sleepy coworker was awakened very quickly by a [...]

Counting Down
- REVISION!! 4/22/09 Editing to include the following very important information-
33 Days until Jessica comes! And we run the Bolder Boulder! And we get trampled by skinny hippies! You laugh, but you’ve never seen me run. It might happen. Just remember that when I die, LP gets all my shoes. I promised her years ago, [...]

Two fun things: Mexico and The Kings

As a parting gift, I leave you with the cutest music video ever, from my all-time favorite Norwegian acoustic rock duo. It was tough, choosing my all time favorite [...]

Wednesday’s Delight
Pure heaven is = the new J. Crew catalogue + melty cheese tortilla + the relaxed feeling you get after yoga.
That was Tuesday’s delight. And oh, it was pure delight. J.Crew is my porn (second only to The Economist) and I love to sift through it and imagine how great life would be if only I [...]

Ponderous Maximus Tuesdayemous
What If:
Very wasted college students in off-color bedsheets and craft store greenery, the ones who hold crinkly beer cans and shout “TO-GA! TO-GA! TO-GA!”
Were replaced with:
Very serene 30-somethings in stretch pants and hemp hoodies, the kind who drink out of stainless steel water bottles and shout “YO-GA! YO-GA! YO-GA!”
Ponder:
- Would they actually shout? Or would it be [...]

A Monday Wish
I desire this bike:
I also desire to be Ellen Page. While we’re desiring things, I thought I’d throw that one in there, too.
But I’ll start with the bike.

Bacon flavored Snickers bar on a stick wearing a bikini.
So, I have g-mail. And it’s great. I was actually excited to check my e-mail for the first few months of having it, because I love color coding, categorizing and all manner of sorting.
For example, as a child, Halloween meant holing up in a corner somewhere in whatever costume I had chosen that I could feasibly [...]
