Up in Humboldt again, and having a great time. The annual summer party was a success, and now I am just trying to enjoy the sunshine and outdoors as much as I can before the summer ends and I have to go back to school. So I had better get off of this blasted computer and get back outside!!!
Just got back from Humboldt...too much alcohol, too much love, not enough sleep...must recover...
I go back up there on Friday.

I have found that I can store sleep over long periods of time. At least while I'm on vacation.

Happy birthday, asshole.

Right on. I was recently introduced to xkcd and love it. Good stuff.
Fuck, fuck, fuck...I just accidentally logged out before posting my Blog update. So you guys are going to have to settle for the list version instead. Which might actually be better from your standpoint.

are you young enough that you had the writing section on the SATs? I can never remember when it started.
She's probably looking for an Aprilia. I've known a few people who've had them, no one close to me. First off, tell her there's very little chance she'll regret "becoming a member" of the SFSGs; all they really mean is that she should join the mailing list (they ask you to fill out like a ten question thingy about what kind of bike you have/want, where you live, blahdeblah) and then you're free to ask questions of the group...which is better than just expecting the mod to answer them because she might not know, but someone in the group will. So, yeah, tell her it's painless, tell her there are lots of people in their 40s (and older), lots of people who have just asked questions and never come out to an event, etc. She can even leave the mailing list once she's gotten what she wants
(I feel like I'm being patronizing, which is totally not my intention--I'm trying to communicate that the mailing list is probably a lot more helpful than I could be, and not at all burdensome.)
THAT SAID, tell her to check craigslist if she hasn't already. I think Scuderia here in the city is the only shop that sells new Aprilias; I don't know whether they do used, but they're super nice there and would probably point her in the right direction. The two "main" scooter shops in the city are SF Scooter Center and First Kick, which I know do used but I don't know if they do Aprilia, and then there's Rockridge Two Wheels over on your side (again, besides Vespas I'm not sure what they carry or whether they deal in used bikes).
Hope that helps!

Thanks!
And yay for you on all that awesome stuff you've got going on lately too. Very cool. I shall reply in more detail once I'm not behaving so much like headless poultry, I promise. It's been a while, and I'd love to catch up.
Until then,

Wow, I have so much to blog about, I don't even know where to begin. It has been a phenomenal couple of weeks, with my trip to PDX to see my sister, and then my trip to SD where I had the good fortune of staying at this house for 7 nights. I got back from SD on Wednesday night, and got to hang out...

Funny you should mention it, I am looking into VWs.

Yuck, I'm sorry to hear that. It went well; thank you for thinking of me. If all goes well, there will be more.
I trust you're feeling better now.

Hey, it's your roommate! Which I only found out two weeks ago.

I looked for a google image of "rock hands," because it seems that's my default response these days when someone tell me something good (yes. dork.) but they were all really disturbing.
So, hurray rocking life!

A whirlwind trip to Santa Monica that lasted less than 48hrs, and no photos to show for it. Let's face it, I hate playing the part of the tourist, especially when I am hanging out with "locals." Given that my sister is also a bit of a shutterbug, I imagine that the blog following my return from PDX will be much more visually stimulating.

I can't believe I am paying for internet right now. I had to go downtown to do some stuff this morning, and in the process I realized I had some internet shit that I needed to get done. I really didn't want to go all the way home to do it, so I popped into some random cafe that had a wifi sticker in the...

I can't believe places still charge for internet - last time I had to do that was when I was down in San Diego with a broken laptop. Annoyed the hell out of me.
If you find a place that sells livers, send me the link. I may need one too.

I'm just silly, I guess. I suppose I just don't feel like things aren't as busy as they might be if I were, say, in law school.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNONCEMENT: Listening to Mirah on BART, or generally while in public can seriously fuck with your head. Every glance from a stranger seems to be an invitation to some lovers' tryst. Every smile rife with implications of a shared desire.

Yeah, I checked my "sent" box and it wasn't there. I think I must have tried to send it one of those times that SG went down. Anyway, if nothing else I will bring it to BellJar's party and pass it along. I hope you weren't planning to crock anything anytime soon.
Good luck in hell.

Hand them pictures? You should sell them autographed prints. It would be MUCH more confusing.

I normally fly when I go up. Maybe we can coordinate our trips and fly together? Wouldnt that be fun!

I will be at 'Brosa's. Should be good times.
Also: I was planning on bringing both those cupcakes and fruit salad, but if you're looking for something to bring, you can split the duties with me and bring the fruit? let me know.

It is tuesday, and I am already ready for Friday. Not that the week has been bad so far, I am just totally psyched, because I am planning on doing some major cooking on Friday. I am relatively new to the world of cooking, but it is my new hobby and I love it. I just haven't had a chance to do much in the...
