Month: September 2012

  • Obligatory 2nd Post for September

    Wow, this is only my 2nd post for September? That isn't right. September is "birthday month" and there's usually some happenings every weekend. I actually had a relatively busy & eventful September, but I really wasn't compelled to actually write about it. I had 2 fantasy football drafts Labor Day weekend, volunteered (for the team) for the Ragnar Relay, took part in the Kitchen Sink (which I posted pics of), went out for Jaymi's bday (Elephant Bar, Thalassa, & Berekeley snack-time), bbq'd for Jay's bday, sushi & dessert for Kev's bday, watched a free screening of "For A Good Time, Call...", went to BJ's beer tasting & dinner event, and then this weekend I did major service on mi madre's car (changed out the oil, front & rear differential fluid, & automatic transmission fluid). Oh, and there was also football.

    I'll try to be better about writing about stuff in October. I really haven't had that many ideas to write about. I mean, I have, but they're kind of depressing topics, like  "what I'd say to my cousins & friends if I were to never see them again" (think, video will), or "faking my death (witness protection scenario) and starting a new life somewhere else", or something to the effect of "it was a good ride, but all good things must come to an end". I have still end up writing about one or all of those, but we'll see if something more positive comes up.

  • Ice Cream & Hello Kitty

    Haile's cousin Mark is in town, so naturally we went to the SF Creamery to get the infamous Kitchen Sink, and then to Japantown for the Sanrio Hello Kitty store. I know Mark's not in any of the pics below, but he really IS in town. He His work paid for just about everything.

    The Kitchen Sink - doesn't look too bad from this angle.

    But it really is HUGE (twss). Just look at Kev's face....he's in awe.

    Me, super cheesin'? Kev is not amused. Oh, and that's what was left at the end. You can't see inside the sink, but there's still a bunch in there.

    In front of the Sanrio store while was Mark inside getting his Hello Kitty on. I have NO idea what I'm doing or why....

    ...so I requested a re-do. I have my "be cool, just be cool....don't do anything stupid like last time" face on.
