Monday Stuff
Some friends meet me for dinner or drinks, some friends research Wifi and then meet me for dinner or drinks. I can't even get a signal in my own apartment sometimes and Patrick's getting 300+ on the train? Damn hackers . . . . Speaking of friends, thanks to one of them darn social network sites, I got back in touch with someone I went to Jr High and High School with. We used to be way into comic books. Turns out that he wound up getting in to publishing them. Due to an incredibly generous UPS shipment, I'm making my way through quite a few of the titles from Boom! Studios. The three of you closeted comic fans who read this blog should check out some of their titles. It's almost April. You should be getting your bikes ready. Why is it that whenever I have a week when I think, "hrm, I need to curtail my spending habits" it turns out that it's the same week I get wine allocation letters? MMmmmm yummy wine. . . Some co-workers and I wandered down to the best/most dangerous store in SF- Fog City News on Friday. There were enough of us that the owner came out from behind the counter and gave us a little chat and tasting demo. I think every one of us wound up buying chocolate that day. Mmmm yummy chocolate. I'm glad I have one of their frequent buyer cards which list what I've bought before because it keeps me trying new ones. I'm now a HUGE fan of Byrne & Carlson's Sea Salt & Chipotle bar. Someone asked me the other day why I haven't posted a dvd roundup in a while. It's because my super-versatile, yet cheap, DVD player died. I have a cheap one on the way so I'll be back and posting another roundup soon. I leave you with this post from Laughing Squid-- I so wish I could get frequent flier miles on this. How awesome would that be? 24 Mar 23:55 | /general | 3 comment(s)
